Allow specifying user inputs for mandatory building blocks via API
complete
Andreas Grub
Given a landing zone with mandatory building blocks which have user inputs without default inputs provided.
When creating a new tenant within a project using that landing zone, the panel asks the user for such BB user inputs before the tenant can be created.
The API currently does not support provide any means to discover necessary user inputs as the panel does, neither does the meshTenant API V4 support providing such inputs. Creating a tenant based on a landing zone with user inputs is thus currently impossible to do (results in bad request when POSTing a new tenant).
This defiency hinders automation via API.

Update: Mandatory Building Blocks via API now available
We are happy to announce that with meshStack v2025.55.0, tenants can now be created via the API with mandatory building blocks that have user inputs with default values.
We are going to tackle the broader topic of enabling a better experience for making mandatory a "landing zone base plate" in the next cycle, see also
