Hi,

Is there some code/example about how to make a user a manager of a group? I'm trying to automate the creation of users to do this test properly. I can create the user, but just assigning group_ids is not enough when creating the user.

For example:
# CREATE USER
data = {
#'groups_id': [9, 2, 8, 19, 23, 21, 13, 11, 17, 7, 12, 18, 20, 1, 22, 3],
'password': 'test', 
'active': True, 
'name': 'Test', 
'login': 'test', 
}

sock = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy('http://%s:8069/xmlrpc/object'%host)
id = sock.execute(dbname, uid, pwd, model, 'create', data)
