Re: [Hawkular-dev] Has to provide tenant header to look up tenant
Inventory's REST API currently doesn't have a mechanism to tell you the list
of tenants it knows about.
I'm not sure it actually is a desirable thing to do, because the knowledge of
tenant IDs are an external concern that might be up for some kind of
authorization checks that are out of control of inventory. As such, inventory
just goes with the tenant ID you give it and assumes you are authorized to
know it.
The tenant endpoint exists solely because you can ask questions about the
tenant (of which you only know the ID otherwise) like what properties are
stored with it, what relationships it participates in, etc.

I found something weird when I was playing with the rest api.
When I GET ‘inventory/tenant’, this request has to provide tenant header.
It does not make sense to me because I look up my tenants because I don’t
know them.
