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.

    original message:
    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

    project.access_token.create({"name": "somename", "scopes": "api")

    but this does

    project.access_token.create({"name": "somename", "scopes": ["api"])

    python 3.8.3
    python-gitlab 2.10.1
    API v4
    Gitlab 14.1.3
