Hi Proxmox Team
in this month we are working on an Android Client for Proxmox (QuadProx-mobile), to manage your software we have used JSON API (very good job Team) with very gratification but now we have a little problem.
Our app is Cluster oriented, so we have this kind of view:

1- Cluster
2- Nodes
3- VM

We have used some API to retrieve the Nodes Detail (/api2/json/nodes/ or /api2/json/nodes/"nodename"/status) and for VMs but we have a little problem to the retrieve Cluster Name because we can use this API "/api2/json/cluster/status" only if we are Admin.
In this way we can not give the right information to a Simple VM user and also i think is better to Know every where on what cluster we do an operation.
I also see this cosmetic problem on the Web Gui, if i want know the Cluster name i need to go on "HA" resources. I think is better to have "Cluster View" from the dropdown box but please say me your point of view and possible way to solve our Android app problem.
Thanks so much
Dimitri Bellini
 
Various users complain that we already show too much info for simple VM users. The even want to hide all node information. So I am quite unsure about that currently.

Maybe we can just return the cluster name with the login response?
