Hi Rob, especially on a new Galaxy they tend to because every Galaxy table has its own id series which is in turn encoded with the same secret. So when you create your first user and your first group, they will have the same id (1). Same with first history, first dataset etc. iow: Galaxy objects do not have unique IDs in the whole Galaxy, just within the object group. Hope this helps.

Hi everyone,

This may seem like a silly question, but are user id's and group id's expected to be the "same"?

For example:

...

...

...

gi.users.get_users() [{u'username': u'user1', u'model_class': u'User', u'id': u'f2db41e1fa331b3e', u'email': u'XXXXX'}, {u'username': u'user2', u'model_class': u'User', u'id': u'f597429621d6eb2b', u'email': u'XXXXX'}]

...

...

...

gi.groups.get_groups() [{u'url': u'/api/groups/f2db41e1fa331b3e', u'model_class': u'Group', u'id': u'f2db41e1fa331b3e', u'name': u'group1'}, {u'url': u'/api/groups/f597429621d6eb2b', u'model_class': u'Group', u'id': u'f597429621d6eb2b', u'name': u'group2'}]

This is just a dev instance I set up really quick, so these are the first two users/groups I've created. If this is expected behavior I'll carry on, just seems odd to me.

Thanks!
