POST /v1/spaces/:space_id/user_roles

Create a user role (invite a user to space).

Params

To invite a user to space, a data body must be provided. Data can be provided in three formats: XML, JSON and query string. To specify data type of XML or JSON add the Content-type: application/(json|xml) header to request headers, if you want to provide query string simply skip the Content-type header.

All params should be sent in the user_role namespace, e.g.:

XML

<user_role>
  <user_id>_user_id</user_id>
  <role>member</role>
  ...
</user_role>

JSON

{"user_role":{"user_id":"_user_id","role":"member"...}}

Query string

user_role[user_id]=_user_id&user_role[role]=member...
