Hi team, We are currently self-hosting Growthbook and it has been very helpful for our team and company. We have a use case where we need to tag the owner/creator of long-running feature flags on slack or an issue on our project tracker. I was looking at the

/features

API and found that the

owner

information is available but it is a free text field and

revision.publishedBy

contains the email address of the person who did the last change. We are unable to co-related the free text owner field with the email address as multiple people can have the same name. Is there a way to get the email address of the creator of the feature flag?

you want this from the API or from the front end?

API

We wanted to tag the creators here. Could have done it if the the email id of the creators was part of the API. Is there any other workaround?

fair enough - can you open an issue with this request?

This is the API that we are using:

GET /api/v1/features
