The new taxonomy doesn't have a `notify_go_live_incomplete` tag. We
replaced this with `notify_go_live_incomplete_mou` because the only way
users can submit an incomplete request is if they do not agree to the
MOU.
These are the incomplete tags:
- `notify_go_live_incomplete_mou`
- `notify_go_live_incomplete_reply_to`
- `notify_go_live_incomplete_shared_email`
- `notify_go_live_incomplete_templates`
Of those, only the first one is applied automatically.
Requests to go live and email branding requests come through to Zendesk
with tags attached automatically.
With the revised taxonomy some of these tags need to be updated, as
summarised in this spreadsheet.
In addition, `notify_action` tag has to be added in each of those cases.

We mostly rely on the API returning a 404 to generate 404s for trying
to get things with non-UUID IDs. This is fine, except our tests often
mock these API calls. So it could look like everything is working fine,
except the thing your passing in might never be a valid UUID, and thus
would 404 in a non-test environment.
So this commit:
1. uses the `uuid` URL converter everywhere there’s something that looks
like an ID in a URL parameter
2. adds a test which automates checking for 1.
If there aren’t a range of options (normally presented as radio buttons)
to show the user on the email branding request page then we just show
the textbox. But we were still doing form validation on the radio
buttons, even though the user couldn’t see them to click them. This
stopped the user from being able to submit the form.
This commit fixes the problem by, in this specific case, pre-ticking the
‘Something else’ radio button.
Updating an organisation’s branding might now also update the branding
of services associated to that organisation. This is similar to how
updating an organisation’s type can update the organisation type for its
services.
In the latter case we already make sure to clear the cached version of
these services which is held in Redis.
This commit does the same clearing of the caches when updating an
organisation’s branding (and does a bit of refactoring to do so without
duplication of code.)
Letting people input a bit of free text should reduce the amount of back
and forth we have to do over support tickets when setting up someone’s
branding.
If something else is the only option then we don’t show the radio button
at all and have just the free text input on the page (not behind a
progressive disclosure).
Users who work in local government can’t have GOV.UK branding on their
emails. And only those working for Companies House (for example) can
request the Companies House branding.
This commit adds:
- new choices of email branding, which offer the name of the branding,
rather than the style
- logic to filter this list to only the applicable options, based on
what we know about the user, service and organisation
This is a change from the previous approach which put the onus on users
to figure out the style of branding they wanted, when we might already
know that a lot of the options weren’t available to them, or would be
inconsistent with the branding of other services in their organisation.
We want GPs to be able to accept the agreement online. But at the moment
they don’t get automatically assigned to organisations. So we need to
let them enter the agreement accepting journey even if they don’t have
an organisation set up.
of course it's logged in, it's a platform admin
also, reduce use of the `client` fixture in test_platform_admin
(replace it with platform_admin_client)
We added `Upload letters` to the platform admin service settings, which makes is confusing when next to `Upload documents`.
Also `User auth type editting` is a confusing label
`User auth type editting` --> `Email authentication`
`Uploading documents` --> `Send file by email`
It’s possible to delete default letter contact blocks because there is a
fallback – having a blank letter contact block. This is different to SMS
senders and reply to addresses.
For this to make sense it also means:
- adding the ‘blank’ letter contact block to the list of letter contact
blocks
- having a way of setting the default back to being blank
The service organisation type will either be the same as the org type of
the service's organisation or will be set by a user when creating a new
service. This removes the ability to change it from the platform admin
settings table.
This makes it consistent that an option which contains more options has
a hint about how many options it contains.
Also adds a formatter to get us ready for 1,000 services 🎉
If you’ve come from a template to add a new letter sender then it’s
because you want those words on that template. This commit adds the
extra API call to make that happen.
Most users don’t have multiple contact blocks. So by default it should
feel like you’re just editing the one contact block, rather than
managing a collection of them. So this page skips the ‘choose’ page when
the user doesn’t yet have any contact blocks.
The ‘make this default’ checkbox should be shown, except when:
- the user is adding their first email reply to address (because the
first one has to be the default)
- they’re editing the existing default (because they can’t change it
to be not default)
The data flow of other bits of our application looks like this:
```
API (returns JSON)
⬇
API client (returns a built in type, usually `dict`)
⬇
Model (returns an instance, eg of type `Service`)
⬇
View (returns HTML)
```
The user API client was architected weirdly, in that it returned a model
directly, like this:
```
API (returns JSON)
⬇
API client (returns a model, of type `User`, `InvitedUser`, etc)
⬇
View (returns HTML)
```
This mixing of different layers of the application is bad because it
makes it hard to write model code that doesn’t have circular
dependencies. As our application gets more complicated we will be
relying more on models to manage this complexity, so we should make it
easy, not hard to write them.
It also means that most of our mocking was of the User model, not just
the underlying JSON. So it would have been easy to introduce subtle bugs
to the user model, because it wasn’t being comprehensively tested. A lot
of the changed lines of code in this commit mean changing the tests to
mock only the JSON, which means that the model layer gets implicitly
tested.
For those reasons this commit changes the user API client to return
JSON, not an instance of `User` or other models.
At the moment we have a blanket rule that users can’t archive their own
services, to prevent someone accidentally deleting a real live service,
because that would be Very Bad.
But the tickets we get from users asking us to delete services are for
services they set up when they were just trying out Notify. There’s not
much harm in letting users delete these services, the consequences of
doing so are much lower than those of deleting a live service. And it
should mean fewer support tickets for us to deal with.
At the moment we have to update a YAML file and deploy the change to get
a new domain whitelisted.
We already have a thing for adding new domains – the organisation stuff.
This commit extends the validation to look in the `domains` table on the
API if it can’t find anything in the YAML whitelist.
This has the advantage of:
- not having to deploy code to whitelist a new domain
- forcing us to create new organisations as they come along, so that
users’ services automatically get allocated to the organisation once
their domain is whitelisted
"Failure is slower than success. So the longer a notification
takes to get a status, the more likely it is for that status
to be a failure anyway. This increases dramatically after 45 seconds.
The percentage of emails that go to delivered in less than 90 seconds
is 98.92%. To get to 99% we’d need to increase the timeout
to 178 seconds (3 minutes). We could still get 98.7% of notifications
by dropping the timeout to 45 seconds, and improve the experience
for notifications that are likely to fail by returning an error more quickly."
This removes the edit_folder_permission checks from the code, enabling
the folder permissions for all services.
This also fixes folder-related tests to set up appropriate user
permissions.
This should only be merged right after alphagov/notifications-api#2428,
when all other permission stories are done.
