Summary

Fixes #9955.

  • Preserve the existing id field as the user ID on project-member list responses.
  • Add project_member_id with the corresponding ProjectMember.id.
  • Apply the same contract to the /members/ alias and /project-members-lite/ endpoint.
  • Make the project-member detail GET response consistent with the documented project-member ID contract.
  • Add contract tests covering list, alias, lite, retrieve, update, and delete flows.

Validation

  • 13 relevant API contract tests passed.
  • Ruff checks passed.
  • Ruff formatting passed.
  • git diff --check passed.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Project-member API responses include a distinct membership ID alongside the user ID.
    • Membership IDs from list responses can be used to retrieve, update, and delete the corresponding membership.
    • Project-member responses include user profile details such as name, email, and avatar.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Project member list and detail responses now expose the membership ID separately from the user ID. Contract tests cover retrieving, updating, and deleting memberships by membership ID.

Changes

Project member ID discovery

Layer / File(s) Summary
Membership ID serializer fields
apps/api/plane/api/serializers/member.py, apps/api/plane/api/serializers/__init__.py
A read-only serializer exposes user profile fields and the project membership ID. The lite serializer also adds a read-only project_member_id field.
List and detail responses
apps/api/plane/api/views/member.py, apps/api/plane/tests/contract/api/test_project_member_api_ids.py
List responses include both user and membership IDs, and detail responses serialize the membership directly. Contract tests cover the standard and alias lists, the lite endpoint, and retrieval, update, and deletion by membership ID.

Change: Bug fix · Severity of issue fixed: Medium

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 4768e

Responses retain the user ID and expose the membership ID used for membership operations. No actionable merge risk remains in the reviewed changes.

Serialize membership records directly for the list response.

The base query kept membership IDs in the database. This code loads every membership pair into an O(n) Python dictionary, then sends the keys in an O(n) IN list. The unpaginated endpoint can return large membership sets, so this adds avoidable application memory and query costs as the project grows. Filter null members and order by user creation time to preserve the previous list behavior.

Suggested fix
         project_members = ProjectMember.objects.filter(
             project_id=project_id,
             workspace__slug=slug,
-        ).values_list("member_id", "id")
-        membership_ids = {member_id: project_member_id for member_id, project_member_id in project_members}
+            member__isnull=False,
+        ).select_related("member").order_by("-member__created_at")
 
         # Get all the users that are present inside the workspace
-        users = UserLiteSerializer(
-            User.objects.filter(id__in=membership_ids.keys()),
-            many=True,
-        ).data
-        for user in users:
-            user["project_member_id"] = membership_ids[user["id"]]
+        users = ProjectMemberUserLiteSerializer(project_members, many=True).data
