listUsageRecord only for Admins? Why?
Hello developers!
is there any reason why listUsageRecords api call is only limited to root
and admin users?
I think this use case is very common and it would be nice if clients can
see their usage records in their projects.
Is there any workaround for that?
Best,

As a workaround, we could just update the permissions for the API in the commands.properties to allow normal users to make that API call.
Default Contents:
#### usage commands
generateUsageRecords=1
*listUsageRecords=7*
listUsageTypes=1
Change it to:
#### usage commands
generateUsageRecords=1
*listUsageRecords=15*
listUsageTypes=1

Agree. I don't think it's possible currently. The listUsageRecords needs to be modified.
