Need API to know which spaces a user is a collaborator

[dlabrecq]

I'm in the process of implementing the UXD design below for the my spaces page.
https://redhat.invisionapp.com/share/DQDSL22JA#/screens/261389228

There is no API we can use to show which spaces the user is a collaborator. Unfortunately, we have to omit this feature from the new my spaces page.

@aslakknutsen do we have an api for this?

[alexeykazakov]

No we don't. Yet.

This api will be used to know if you are a collaborator on a space.

1. Based on that you should be able to leave the space and stop being a collaborator.
2. You should also be able to filter the list of spaces to show only those that you own or are a collaborator on

Does the current API support these use cases?

[alexeykazakov]

What we have now:

1. GET /api/space/:spaceID/collaborators - list collaborators of the space
2. POST /api/space/:spaceID/collaborators/:userID - add collaborator
3. DELETE /api/space/:spaceID/collaborators/:userID - delete collaborator

That's it.
New API will provide endpoints for checking if user is a collaborator for particular space and for getting the list of spaces where user is a collaborator.

And btw, #2 from the list above could actually be used for checking if user is a collaborator in the space or not even now. If it returns 403 then user is not a collaborator.

Is "collaborator" the only useful scope to query for, or should we be providing a more generic api in which you can query the resources for which the user has any specified scope?

[joshuawilson]

I think a generic one that covers everything would work. For more details see #1849.
