Can't create impersonation token from CLI #780
Description
Description of the problem, including code/CLI snippet
Creation of user impersonation token fails from CLI with invalid scope error
$ gitlab -d -o json -g example user-impersonation-token create --user-id 168 --name test --scopes '["api"]'It seems to be trying to pass the supplied value as a string instead of converting to an array (see the output in Actual Behavior). Have tried multiple variations of the scopes value such as api, [api], ["api"], "[api]", and "['api']".
Using curl like this
$ curl -X POST -H "Content-type: application/json" -H "PRIVATE-TOKEN: 123412341234" https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/users/2/impersonation_tokens -d '{"name": "test", "scopes": ["api"]}'Successfully creates the token.
Expected Behavior
Token is created.
Actual Behavior

I also seem to be getting a "scopes is invalid" error when trying to use
gl.applications.create()and the scopes['read_user', 'read_api']Python gitlab 2.10.0
Api v4
Gitlab 14.1.0-ee

edit: My bad, I've mixed up access token with deploy token. Latter doesn't allow the 'api' value. Proper ones work. It doesn't seem to be possible to create access token from CLI.

Hi
I also struggle with a similar problem when using CLI -
gitlab project-deploy-token create. Just like the author of the issue - I've tried multiple variations of the scopes value and using curl works.Also, inside Python session:
this doesn't work
but this does
python 3.8.3
python-gitlab 2.10.1
API v4
Gitlab 14.1.3
