✨ Add API endpoint to Control Panel that returns a users Justice Email

[michaeljcollinsuk]

User Story

As a developer
I need the control panel API to return users Justice email address
So that we can programatically match a users github identity with their justice identity from other services

Value / Purpose

Will allow us to use a users Github identity to retrieve their Justice identity. We can then use this to sync permissions granted from the data-engineering-database-access repo with Lake Formation permissions against the user's Justice identity.

Hypothesis

If we... have way to programatically retrieve a users Justice email from their Github username
Then... we can use the Justice identity to grant LF permissions when their access changes in data-engineering-database-access

Proposal

• Check existing API endpoints in Control Panel for one that could be used
• If one is not present, and a new endpoint that takes a users Github username, and as a minimum returns the users Justice Identity
• Consider any other details about the user that we may want to return
• Ensure adequate authentication is in place for the API endpoint. We should be able to utilise the existing auth process, which uses Auth0

Definition of Done

• API endpoint implemented
• API endpoint documented
• API endpoint tested using a test application set up in Auth0
• Any follow up tickets raised
