Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Quinn James 2023-07-19 19:48:19 UTC 
Description of problem:
When using the API to request a bulk refresh of alternate content sources, invalid ids will be discarded if there is a single valid ACS id in the query.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
n/a

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a Sat instance with an alternate content source, note the id.
2. Start a bulk refresh using the API, including the valid id along with several bogus id's:
`curl --request POST --user admin:changeme -H "Content-type: application/json" <host>/katello/api/alternate_content_sources/bulk/refresh?ids=<valid>,1001,1002,1003`

Actual results:
JSON output informing the user that the valid id alone has been refreshed

Expected results:
An error indicating invalid parameters

Additional info:
n/a
Comment 1 Quinn James 2023-07-19 20:00:01 UTC 
I just confirmed this behavior also occurs for bulk delete of alternate content sources.
Comment 2 Samir Jha 2023-08-02 14:43:20 UTC 
Created redmine issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/36634 from this bug
Comment 3 Bryan Kearney 2023-08-04 16:03:06 UTC 
Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite since the upstream issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/36634 has been resolved.
Comment 5 Vladimír Sedmík 2023-08-11 16:06:58 UTC 
Verified in 6.14.0 snap 11

1) Invalid ids are caught on bulk actions and proper error message is displayed:
[root@sat ~]# curl -X POST -su admin:nene -H "Content-type: application/json" https://$(hostname)/katello/api/alternate_content_sources/bulk/refresh --data '{"ids": [1,2,3]}' | jq
{
  "displayMessage": "Could not find alternate content sources with id: [\"3\"] . You either do not have required permissions, or these alternate content sources do not exist.",
  "errors": [
    "Could not find alternate content sources with id: [\"3\"] . You either do not have required permissions, or these alternate content sources do not exist."
  ]
}
[root@sat ~]# curl -X PUT -su admin:nene -H "Content-type: application/json" https://$(hostname)/katello/api/alternate_content_sources/bulk/destroy --data '{"ids": [1,2,3]}' | jq
{
  "displayMessage": "Could not find alternate content sources with id: [\"3\"] . You either do not have required permissions, or these alternate content sources do not exist.",
  "errors": [
    "Could not find alternate content sources with id: [\"3\"] . You either do not have required permissions, or these alternate content sources do not exist."
  ]
}

2) Valid ids are accepted and actions run:
[root@sat ~]# curl -X POST -su admin:nene -H "Content-type: application/json" https://$(hostname)/katello/api/alternate_content_sources/bulk/refresh --data '{"ids": [1,2]}' | jq
{
  "id": "37491c3a-940b-40fa-8f14-585128b92086",
  "label": "Actions::BulkAction",
  "pending": true,
  "action": "Bulk action",
  ...
}
[root@sat ~]# curl -X PUT -su admin:nene -H "Content-type: application/json" https://$(hostname)/katello/api/alternate_content_sources/bulk/destroy --data '{"ids": [1,2]}' | jq
{
  "id": "eda91f3e-62ef-4ada-b65c-0620ab02fc3e",
  "label": "Actions::BulkAction",
  "pending": true,
  "action": "Bulk action",
  ...
}
