There was an awkward line break in this text, and the line length was
too long because there was no grid on the page.
Splitting it into two paragraphs makes it:
- read nicer
- avoids any awkward line breaks
Once all our users have upgraded to the latest clients they won’t need
this. The latest clients only use the combined key and service ID.
Discuss: when can we safely remove it?
In pages specific to a service (e.g. dashboard and sub pages) the title
needs to distinguish which service it applies to. This is mainly to give
context to screen reader users who could be managing multiple services.
Implementing this uses template inheritance:
`page_title` includes `per_page_title` includes `service_page_title`
‘GOV.UK Notify’ is inserted into every page title.
Pages that set `service_page_title` get the service name inserted too.
In research we’ve seen people mix up the service ID and API key because
they’re both 36 character UUIDs. We can’t get rid of the service ID
because it’s used to look up the API key.
Instead, we should change API key to be one long string, which contains
both the service ID, API key and (optionally) the name of the key. For
example:
```
casework_production-8b3aa916-ec82-434e-b0c5-d5d9b371d6a3-dcdc5083-2fee-4fba-8afd-51f3f4bcb7b0
```
We still need to keep the old, separate, key and service ID for a while
until people have updated their clients. But they’re now both on this
page, rather than on two separate pages, which should make for less
fussing anyway.
This shouldn’t be rolled out until the new clients are available.
