A lot of pages in the admin app are now generated entirely from Redis,
without touching the API.
The one remaining API call that a lot of pages make, when the user is
platform admin or a member of an organisation, is to get the name of
the current service’s organisation.
This commit adds some code to start caching that as well, which should
speed up page load times for when we’re clicking around the admin app
(it’s typically 100ms just to get the organisation, and more than that
when the API is under load).
This means changing the service model to get the organisation from the
API by ID, not by service ID. Otherwise it would be very hard to clear
the cache if the name of the organisation ever changed.
We can’t cache the whole organisation because it has a
`count_of_live_services` field which can change at any time, without an
update being made.
It was saying ‘16 hours ago’ instead of today. This is because, in
strftime:
- `%M` means minute, not month
- `%D` means short MM/DD/YY date, not day of the month
The test wasn’t catching this because the freeze time and mocked value
from the API were set to the same minute.
if someone starts a new one-off flow they'll get taken to the address
page. However, if someone hits the back button, they'll cycle backwards
through placeholders and will end up on the individual line pages. Lets
redirect them to the correct place.
We'll additionally need to reconstruct the address block from the
various session variables that may or may not be populated
rather than in multiple placeholders - this is the first step towards
making postcodes non-required, which is the first step towards
international letters.
they still populate address_line_# and postcode fields under the hood -
to keep validation working the same, the last line always goes into
`postcode`.
the form normalises whitespace, removes extra new lines, and enforces
that you have between three and seven lines.
if the letter repeats address placeholders further down (eg "Dear
((address_line_1))"), then it'll fill those in as well. It'll still
prompt you to fill them in, but they'll be pre-filled.
if we are asserting on a redirect we expect the result to be 302 (you
could still override this to 301 if you want).
also give some function calls kwargs to make them easier to read
If someone enters an email address from a domain we don’t recognise we
direct them straight to our support channel. This is causing increased
contact from suppliers and members of the public.
Now that we have a page which explains who can use Notify, let’s direct
people there first. Then if they really do need to contact support
(because we don’t recognise their organisation) then they can do so from
that page.
We have a policy about how suppliers are allowed to use Notify. But we
don’t explain it anywhere. Which drives contact to our support form.
This commit that adds a new page that explains the policy.
I’ve moved the related content about who else can use Notify from the
get started page to this page as well, where it doesn’t need to sit in
a details element.
This is for tickets coming from non-logged-in users. It’s effectively
the same as reporting a problem, but doesn’t have the banner about
the status page (because we can’t tell if they’re actually reporting a
problem now we’re not asking).
It also gives a more generic page title.
We can’t give advice to members of the public, but increasingly we’re
seeing them try to use our support form to ask.
It would be better for them if we can direct them straight to somewhere
more useful, before they have the chance to raise a support ticket.
This commit replaces the report a problem/ask a question triaging for
users who aren’t signed in. It’s not possible for non-signed-in users to
raise an priority 1 ticket, so we never need to triage the tickets in
this way.
Instead we can triage people based on whether they work in the public
sector or not. If they do then we send them on to the feedback form. If
not then they go to a new page which contains some useful links. We’ve
chosen these links based on some analysis of the support tickets we’ve
received recently[1]

We are seeing little benefit of allowing users to not put in their email
address. This will mean that you must provide it for feedback, not just
problems with the site.
There could maybe be some more refactoring of the support templates as
this is now very similar to the report a problem page but this is a
quick fix so haven't gone too in depth.
This page is slow to load which means:
- it’s annoying for us
- it’s potentially causing load on the database
This commit does two things to reduce the amount we’re unnecessarily
looking at this page:
1. Avoid redirecting to it when signing in as a platform admin user
2. Don’t go directly to it when clicking ‘platform admin’ at the top,
but instead show a holding page (there’s a fair chance you’ve clicked
that link in order to go and manage some email branding or find a
user, not wait for stats to load)
This test sent an empty string to represent the 'who' field not having a value. This is represented by a group of radios in the page.
In browsers, radios that aren't selected result in that field not being included in the HTTP parameters. This change makes the test match that.
The expected validation message is also changed to the one you see in a browser. Turns out [the WTForms DataRequired validator](https://wtforms.readthedocs.io/en/stable/validators.html#wtforms.validators.DataRequired) produces a different error message for an empty string vs the value being missing ("This field is required." vs "Not a valid choice").
When we first built the contact list feature this endpoint didn’t exist.
Now it does we can remove the slightly cludgy looping-through-all-the-lists
code.
The saved uploads page just shows you the same thing you’ve seen on the
previous page – a list of email addresses.
It’s more useful to see the uploads page, so you can see where the thing
you’ve saved has gone. You can see it more in context.
24px with 19px is what we use on the uploads page. On notifications page
we use 19px with 16px.
There’s some loose idea that the bigger size is for items that contain
other items.
This also increases the line height for recipients of PDF letters to
make things line up.
On the uploads page this should be newest first, same as the scheduled
and immediate jobs on this page.
On the _choose_ page this should be alphabetical, same as choosing a
template.
Uploads page is where all the stuff you’ve uploaded lives. Now you can
upload contact lists they should live here too.
They always come first because they’re the most-removed from stuff
you’ve sent.
Since contact lists only store the email address or phone number, this
won’t work. So we should warn people, and highlight that the
personalisation in the template is the problem, since this is what they
will need to change.
You can’t send an email message template to a list of phone numbers. So
we shouldn’t show you the lists of phone numbers when you’ve chosen an
email template.
Platform admin users now have a link to upload a contact list. This
commit gives them access to the page where they can use this.
Once this commit is merged we have a way of testing the whole flow end
to end, without giving it to all users yet.
If we add another link under it will look weird having two under and
one off to the side. It looked sort of balanced when it was just one
off to the side and one under.
Having all the links under the box makes it less visually noisy.
We need a place where people can get into the contact list journey. This
is going to be the uploads page, because that’s where stuff you upload
lives.
At the moment this is platform-admin only, until we’re ready to launch
the feature.
You’ll be able to use a contact list by first choosing a template, then
choosing the list you want to use.
At the moment this shows all lists, not just the ones that are
compatible with your template.
