I imported my first role in Ansible-Galaxy today under the account ol3d which is linked to my Github account. After importing, I noticed that the role shows “Provided by ol3d0” underneath the role name of ol3d.pikvm. When searching in the role namespaces for “ol3d”, the only one namespace is displa…

okay not sure if the API approach would work for you so I did the delete on my end. I think you’re all set now. Thanks for helping with the debugging.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, as I do not have an active support subscription for RedHat. I have emailed customer support as well, but have not received any help on this issue yet.

[image] ol3d: The collection namespace “ol3d” shows a user of deloa6133, which was my previous username on Github quite a while back. I do not have access to change/remove this username or collection in that namespace. Hi @ol3d We have seen issues occasionally caused by renaming of GitHub ac…

Hey sorry for the delay here @ol3d . I’ve given you access to the ol3d namespace . You can follow these instructions to delete the other namespace ol3d0 . I can’t create the matching ol3d role namespace until you delete the ol3d0 namespace as it’s currently ‘hogging’ that name. I didn’t want to do d…

@samccann Thank you for reaching out to help with this. I don’t mind losing the download count on the role/preventing downloads from Ansible Galaxy while this is being resolved; I would rather have the role within the correct collection namespace. While following the instructions for the DELETE , I …

hmm okay you’re the first person I’ve asked to try this on their own, so maybe the docs are incorrect, or I’m incorrect in thinking the collection owner can do this. I’ll try it out myself tomorrow and see how it goes.

So the first step is the role needs to be deleted. Can you try the delete role instructions and let me know how it goes?

Also, can you let me know if this role existed prior to Galaxy being updated to Galaxy NG? I’m trying to figure out if there is some difference here between the galaxy permissions. I think Galaxy changed over around Oct 2023.

okay sharper minds are telling me this isn’t something the collection owner can do on their own, so sorry for the extra steps here. I’ll give it a try on the back end and let you know how it goes.
