Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

• In group chat, member invited, made admin & removed in offline is showed on returning online.

What is the root cause of that problem?

• In offline, when we invite a new user, we create a random accountID for it.

• Then if we try to remove that user, we just tell BE to remove that random accountID, so the real accountID that BE returns is not removed.

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

• We should disable member that have isOptimisticPersonalDetail. So we cannot "Make admin" or "Remove" that user as we did in:
  

  App/src/pages/workspace/WorkspaceMembersPage.tsx

  Lines 348 to 350 in 0e4f02e

  	isDisabled:
  	!!details.isOptimisticPersonalDetail ||
  	(isPolicyAdmin && (policyEmployee.pendingAction === CONST.RED_BRICK_ROAD_PENDING_ACTION.DELETE || !isEmptyObject(policyEmployee.errors))),

• So:
  

  App/src/pages/ReportParticipantsPage.tsx

  Line 85 in 0e4f02e

  isDisabled: pendingChatMember?.pendingAction === CONST.RED_BRICK_ROAD_PENDING_ACTION.DELETE,

  
  will be:

                isDisabled: pendingChatMember?.pendingAction === CONST.RED_BRICK_ROAD_PENDING_ACTION.DELETE || !!details.isOptimisticPersonalDetail,

Triggered auto assignment to Contributor-plus team member for initial proposal review - @aimane-chnaif (External)

[aimane-chnaif]

@dominictb's proposal looks good.
We should disable removing/making admin for optimistic members in group chat, as we did in workspace members.

What happened with this issue @dominictb @aimane-chnaif? Did we finish it?

[dominictb]

PR merged but Melvin did not send deploy notifications :/ I think it was merged around 3 weeks ago #48035 (comment) so we should issue payment now.

[puneetlath]

Got it. I've paid @dominictb.

@aimane-chnaif can you complete the checklist?
