Octokit::EnterpriseAdminClient create_organization method

[veesa]

I am trying to programmatically create some Organizations.

In the code I have:

admin_client.create_organization('<loginname>', 'false', {:name=>'Research'})

When executed it gives me:

POST https://172.16.165.25.xip.io/api/v3/admin/organizations: 422 - Invalid request. (Octokit::UnprocessableEntity)

"admin", "login" weren't supplied. // See: https://developer.github.com/enterprise/2.4/v3/enterprise/organizations/

What are the values of "admin" and "login" that I need to supply in order to get this method working? The supplied URL (https://developer.github.com/enterprise/2.4/v3/enterprise/organizations/) returns a 404.

Cheers!

So sorry about the incorrect URL. I'll file an issue internally to get that resolved.

In the meantime, the actual documentation URL is https://developer.github.com/enterprise/2.4/v3/enterprise/orgs/. Does reading about the endpoint there help you out?

This is due to the gem release having an incomplete create_organization method:

def create_organization(login, admin, options = {})
  post "admin/organizations", options
end

The login and admin args are ignored. This is not the case on master.

The workaround is to duplicate the fields in the options arg:

admin_client.create_organization 'dummy', 'params', { :login => 'new-org-name', :admin => 'ghe-admin', :profile_name => 'new org!'}

I'm going to go ahead and close this, since there have been new releases since the issue was opened, which would have fixed the create_organization method.
