Another thing we did for templates, when they started to get
unmanageable, was add a find-as-you type search. We’ve observed real
users interacting with this to great effect, so I think it makes sense
for users too.
Like for templates, it only shows up when there are more than 7, so that
it’s not clutter for teams who don’t have a lot of members.

It’s ‘per month’ – ‘a month’ is a colloquialism.
Large numbers should be chunked using commas; ‘20,000’ already is, this commit makes ‘1000’ consistent.
Users can choose whether to have these features on or off now. And
a platform admin can still use the same controls to switch the features
on or off on behalf of a user. There’s no need for the separate buttons.
Our support ticket analysis shows that the most common action request
after going live is turning on letters.
We just do this for any team that requests it – there’s no gatekeeping.
So we should just allow people to make the change themselves.
This will be a better experience for our users, and less work for us.
The design of the page replicates roughly what we have for international
text messaging.
One of the things that came out of the support analysis was that people
were asking how much inbound SMS costs. There wasn’t a significant
volume of these requests, but the fix seems low-effort and
non-disruptive enough that we should do it.

We’ve seen people come back to this page once signed in and be confused what it’s for and how they get back to Notify.
The best way to avoid confusion is (we think) getting people to close this tab.

When we first made this form you couldn’t send one off messages with
Notify. It’s interesting to us because it might help identity teams who
would benefit from email auth, or other features that we build in the
future for caseworkers.
Spreadsheets start at row 1 (the header row), and the values don’t start
until row 2. The row numbers in our URLs start at 0, which is a concept
that only makes sense to programmers.
It’s more predictable and consistent to make the number in the URL match
the row number displayed on the page when previewing the spreadsheet.
We’ve heard from some users, especially those sending letters, that
they’d like to check that a spreadsheet they’ve uploaded has populated
the template correctly.
My reckon is that seeing just one row of the spreadsheet populate the
template isn’t enough to give people confidence that everything’s
working properly.
This commit adds links to all but the currently-previewed row. Clicking
that link will populate the preview with values from that row. These
pages already exist; they were created in this PR:

If you’ve got an inbound number and are using the API you’ll probably
be interested in this new feature we’ve got. And if you do know about
it, you might not be able to find it because we’ve moved it.
The letters notification page makes ajax calls to update the status - these
were failing because it's making a POST request without a CSRF token.
(The email and SMS notification pages contain a search form that includes
the hidden CSRF input, so this was only occurring with the letters
page.)
This commit adds a hidden form for the letters page which just contains
the CSRF token.
