With all the changes surrounding users and roles in foreman 1.5 is it now
possible to assign a role to a user using the API? I dont see anything in
the documentation that suggests its possible.
Thanks
Jeff
Yes. Here is a ruby example using the apipie bindings for creating roles and filters[1] and then assigning to users[2].

which allow assigning an existing role to an existing user. The user update
method (http://theforeman.org/api/apidoc/v2/users/update.html) doesnt
mention assigning roles.

There is at least one open issue[1] in this area. The apipie package, which is used to generate the api bindings and docs, does not include database relations. I don't have a good suggestion besides asking on irc or email.

which seems to work. The documentation could definitely be improved here
but at least it works
