Ramachandran commented on RANGER-3885:
--------------------------------------

[~madhan] / [~rmani]  :As part of the below api, we are supporting the first 
name as part of the filtering 

[https://ranger.apache.org/apidocs/resource_UserREST.html#resource_UserREST_searchUsers_GET]

 

The below API it does not make any sense 
[resource_UserREST_suggestUserFirstName_GET 
|https://ranger.apache.org/apidocs/resource_UserREST.html#resource_UserREST_suggestUserFirstName_GET]

It just returns the firstName based on query parameter letters . 
@GET
        @Path("/firstnames")
        @Produces({ "application/json", "application/xml" })    public String 
suggestUserFirstName(@QueryParam("letters") String letters,
                        @Context HttpServletRequest req) {              return 
null;
        }
if that's the case we can achieve it from  
[https://ranger.apache.org/apidocs/resource_UserREST.html#resource_UserREST_searchUsers_GET]

So we can remove [resource_UserREST_suggestUserFirstName_GET 
|https://ranger.apache.org/apidocs/resource_UserREST.html#resource_UserREST_suggestUserFirstName_GET]
 from our code base .

This is my thought.I will appreciate your input to proceed further.

> User REST API /users/firstnames returns only null with status code 204

> According to the documentation, the API

>  should return status code 200 when a request is made, but the API always 
> returns a status code 204 No Content.
> From the code, it is clear that the API call just returns null without 
> performing any operations.
