Limiting lookups by delivery_email to users with "everyone" email
visibility is overly simplistic. We can successfully do these lookups
whenever the requester has the permission to view the real email address
of the user they're looking up.
Ths hardcoded documentation of which values are possible was destined
to end up inaccurate and out-of-date; and meanwhile, we do have a part
of the API that already has these data in machine-readable format.
We create an unnamed user group with just the group creator as it's
member when trying to set the default. The pattern I've followed across
most of the acting_user additions is to just put the user declared
somewhere before the check_add_user_group and see if the test passes.
If it does not, then I'll look at what kind of user it needs to be set
to `acting_user`.
This commit does not add the logic of using this setting to actually
check the permission on the backend. That will be done in a later
commit.
Only owners can modify this setting, but we will add that logic in a
later commit in order to keep changes in this commit minimal.
Adding the setting breaks the frontend, since the frontend tries to find
a dropdown widget for the setting automatically. To avoid this, we've
added a small temporary if statement to `settings_org.js`.
Although, most lists where we insert this setting follow an unofficial
alphabetical order, `can_manage_all_groups` has been bunched together
with `can_create_groups` since keeping those similar settings together
would be nicer when checking any code related to creating/managing a
user group.

The error response when a user group cannot be deactivated due
to it being used as a subgroup or for a setting includes details
about the supergroups, streams, user groups as well the settings
for which it is used.
This new property allows organization administrators to specify whether
users can modify the custom profile field value on their own account.
This property is configurable for individual fields.
By default, existing and newly created fields have this property set to
true, that is, they allow users to edit the value of the fields.

This commit renames "allow_deactivated" parameter in
"GET /user_groups" endpoint to "include_deactivated_groups", so
that we can have consistent naming here and for client capability
used for deciding whether to send deactivated groups in register
response and how to handle the related events.
This commit introduced 'creator' and 'date_created'
fields in user groups, allowing users to view who
created the groups and when.
Both fields can be null for groups without creator data.
As part of our todo in the code, we want to use the unique user IDs
instead of emails when processing the results of subscribing users to a
channel. These changes apply those changes and streamlines the use of IDs.
This param allows clients to specify how much presence history they want
to fetch. Previously, the server always returned 14 days of history.
With the recent migration of the presence API to the much more efficient
system relying on incremental fetches via the last_update_id param added
in #29999, we can now afford to provide much more history to clients
that request it - as all that historical data will only be fetched once.
There are three endpoints involved:
- `/register` - this is the main useful endpoint for this, used by API
clients to fetch initial data and register an events queue. Clients can
pass the `presence_history_limit_days` param here.
- `/users/me/presence` - this endpoint is currently used by clients to
update their presence status and fetch incremental data, making the new
functionality not particularly useful here. However, we still add the
new `history_limit_days` param here, in case in the future clients
transition to using this also for the initial presence data fetch.
- `/` - used when opening the webapp. Naturally, params aren't passed
here, so the server just assumes a value from
`settings.PRESENCE_HISTORY_LIMIT_DAYS_FOR_WEB_APP` and returns
information about this default value in page_params.
Currently, we want to ask users if they would like to delete their
attachments after they have removed the attachments while editing. These
changes are preparatory changes on the backend to return a list of removed
attachments after the user has removed attachments while editing.
Fixes part of #25525.
This commit removes the 'prev_rendered_content_version'
field from:
* the 'edit_history' object within message objects in the
API response of `GET /messages`, `GET /messages/{message_id}`
and `POST /zulip-outgoing-webhook`.
* the 'update_message' event type
as it is an internal server implementation detail not used
by any client.
Note: The field is still stored in the 'edit_history' column
of the 'Message' table as it will be helpful when making
major changes to the markup rendering process.
This commit make changes in code to include can_manage_group
field to UserGroup objects passed with response of various endpoints
including "/register" endpoint and also in the group object
send with user group creation event.
This commit adds a new group level setting can_manage_group
for configuring who can manage a group. This commit only adds
the field in database and make changes to automatically create
single user groups corresponsing to acting user
which will be the default value for this setting.
Fixes part of #25928.
Note that the link in zulip_update_announcements.py is not updated
so that the content in the source code reflects what users actually
received in the update announcement message.
This commit removes create_web_public_stream_policy setting
since web-public channel creation permissions are now
handled by group-based setting.
We still pass "realm_create_web_public_stream_policy" in
"/register" response though for older clients with its
value being set depending on the value of group based
setting. If we cannot set its value to an appropriate enum
corresponding to the group setting, then we set it to
"Admins and moderators" considering that server will not
allow the users without permissions to create web-public
channels but the client can make sure that UI is
available to the users who have permission.
Previously animated images were automatically played in the
message feed of the web app.
Now that we have still thumbnails available for them, we can add a new
personal setting, "web_animate_image_previews", which controls how the
animated images would be played in the web app message feed -- always
played, on hover, or only in the image viewer.
Fixes#31016.
Adds a header to the section of changes notes about new and
deprecated narrow filters, so that it's easier to directly
link to the relevant content in the construct a narrow article
from the main API changelog and endpoint documentation.
