@RocketChat/core For some reason, this method ALWAYS returns rooms empty. I tried debugging it already and it's entering the part of the code that queries per rooms, so I don't know what's going on. Here's the call example I'm using:

curl -X GET -H "X-Auth-Token: 6eWs4ECxUITYYoZ_bAYK5OE2srkxAepQqQA1cGGv3jK" -H "X-User-Id: hvzu8z6mHFigiXy6Y" http://localhost:3000/api/v1/spotlight?query=t

And I do have a room with the name of general and testing-public-channel. The users I'm trying also have all the permissions required to search by rooms: view-outside-room and view-c-room. Does someone have any idea what's going on?

The query must be a valid json object.

[rafaelks]

@graywolf336 What do you mean? It works for users... do you have an example of how it should be?

[graywolf336]

Never mind, I thought you was doing something else. Ignore my comment.

@rafaelks If you call it via DDP it returns data for rooms?

[rafaelks]

@rodrigok How can I do that?

[rodrigok]

Exactly as you wrote for the server side call, but from you browser (logged in)

Meteor.call('spotlight', 't', null, {
				rooms: true,
				users: true
			})

[rafaelks]

Per our chat, the API is correct & it's not returning the objects because user already joined the rooms.

Great Work @rafaelks !

[rodrigok]

@MarcosSpessatto change to use result from Meteor.runAsUser return

[rafaelks]

Is this PR missing something @rodrigok @MarcosSpessatto?
