Hello,
I have forked the strapi-admin package as you can’t extend it for now because a lot of my dev will rely on this package. I have a question on how to proceed with this package.
I’ve seen that you’ve added populateCreatorFields to force the API to show the user informations, but it does not seem to work on the strapi_administrator collection. Is there a way to achieve this in the strapi-admin package, or is there something else to do on other packages?

Thank you a lot for your precious help

I’m not sure what you are asking here as the admin auto-populates the admin information automatically?

Adding the populateCreatorFields doesn’t change anything in the API response. The only thing I get from the strapi_administrator collection when I call my collection endpoint is the created_by column.

I’m really sorry, I didn’t read the documentation well enough. I thought it would return all the public fields in the users collection. I guess the problem is now solved.
