So I don't see First and last names in accounts https://accounts.fedoraproject.org/user/tdawson/
But its set in the fas2 db, and ist properly configured in IPA as well.

I see that the profile in https://accounts.fedoraproject.org/user/tdawson/ is missing plenty of info that is available in IPA. I assume that the elections app is using fasjson to get the information about user and I can confirm that fasjson really returns None for most of the fields. It only knows the username and date of creation.

I tried to run ipa user-find tdawson on ipa01 and it returns all the account details correctly.

Ive just cleared my cache, restarted the browser and app and tried to add Troy again as a new candidate and its still accepting tdawson as the FAS ID but generates 'None None' as the First Last name so something is definitely not reading those fields. @tdawson is this something you can edit in your FAS account directly? Adding the info there might help fasjson return the right info for the elections app.

I can see it in fasjson logs:

[Mon May 20 11:27:18.504885 2024] [auth_gssapi:info] [pid 5356:tid 5378] [client 10.128.2.2:32848] NO AUTH DATA Client did not send any authentication headers
10.128.2.2 - - [20/May/2024:11:27:18 +0000] "GET /v1/users/tdawson/ HTTP/1.1" 401 236 "-" "python-httpx/0.27.0"

The strange thing is that I see this happening only for tdawson, if I try to look up myself the error is there, but the data are returned.

After doing the request from local fasjson_clientI found the root of this issue. tdawson account was set to private. So it didn't provided any personal information. I disabled the private check so the elections could be started.

@tdawson Feel free to set the privacy back on again after elections.

I didn't know my account was set to private, or even that it was possible. That explains several other minorly annoying things that had been happening. I'm fine leaving it as public.
