Overview

Improves v4 Relationship api to use fine-grained ACLs instead of coarse-grained permission check which was too restrictive.

Before

APIv3 and v4 require 'edit all contacts' to create/update/delete relationships. Users without that permission cannot save or delete any relationship even if they have ACL permission for the related contacts.

After

APIv3 unchanged, but v4 uses ACLs instead and eliminates the overly-restrictive permission check.

Before: APIv3 and v4 require 'edit all contacts' to create/update/delete relationships
After: APIv3 unchanged, but v4 uses ACLs instead so the permission is no longer needed.

Thank you for contributing to CiviCRM! ❤️ We will need to test and review the PR. 👷

Introduction for new contributors
  • If this is your first PR, an admin will greenlight automated testing with the command ok to test or add to whitelist.
  • A series of tests will automatically run. You can see the results at the bottom of this page (if there are any problems, it will include a link to see what went wrong).
  • A demo site will be built where anyone can try out a version of CiviCRM that includes your changes.
  • If this process needs to be repeated, an admin will issue the command test this please to rerun tests and build a new demo site.
  • Before this PR can be merged, it needs to be reviewed. Please keep in mind that reviewers are volunteers, and their response time can vary from a few hours to a few weeks depending on their availability and their knowledge of this particular part of CiviCRM.
  • A great way to speed up this process is to "trade reviews" with someone - find an open PR that you feel able to review, and leave a comment like "I'm reviewing this now, could you please review mine?" (include a link to yours). You don't have to wait for a response to get started (and you don't have to stop at one!) the more you review, the faster this process goes for everyone 😄
  • To ensure that you are credited properly in the final release notes, please add yourself to contributor-key.yml
  • For more information about contributing, see CONTRIBUTING.md.

Thanks for this, how can I test it? I tried the link 'Demo site for this PR' but that wasn't helpful

@clarkac1 now that the PR is merged a PR-specific demo site is no longer needed. Once merged it's part of the nightly alphas which you can download and it's also live on the main demo sites.

Thanks, that was quite. I'll check on the main demo site.
