Currently the dashboard in the admin app pull the entire returned letter
summary for a service to calculate how many letters have been returned
in the last seven days.
Adding a separate endpoint for this purpose is better because:
- it’s a more efficient query
- it’s less data to send down the pipe
- it gives us a place to return the complete datetime, so the dashboard
can be more precise about when the most recent report was
If your caseworking system always spits out files with the same name it
will be hard to differentiate them when looking at the uploads page.
Seeing who the letter was sent to will help you differentiate them.
We can’t do this until the API returns the recipient.
the queries all return lots of columns, but each query has columns it
doesn't care about. eg emails don't have billable units or international
flag, letters don't have international flag, sms don't have a page count
etc. additionally, the query was grouping on things that never change,
like service id and notification type.
by making all of these literals (as in `select 1 as foo`) we see times
that are over 50% quicker for gov.uk email service.
Note: One of the tests changed because previously it involved emails and
sms with statuses that they could never be (eg returned-letter)
The date in the notifications table should always be the most recent date for the template.
Removed the template_type param for the query as well.
Simplified the tests.
The existing endpoint returned a whole notification for the last time the template was used. But this only takes into account data in the last week. This new methods allows us to be specific about when the template was last used if ever but looking into the ft_notification_status table as well.
and update it when users have to use their email to interact with
Notify service.
Initial population:
If user has email_auth, set last_validated_at to logged_in_at.
If user has sms_auth, set it to created_at.
Then:
Update email_access_valdiated_at date when:
- user with email_auth logs in
- new user is created
- user resets password when logged out, meaning we send them an
email with a link they have to click to reset their password.
- Do not show "hidden" or precompiled templates, users don't know about them.
- Remove the client reference if it is the file name of an uploaded file.
- Format the date for created_at
- Added a test for all the different types of letters.
1) One off templated letter
2) Letter created by a csv upload or job.
3) Uploaded letter
4) Templated letter sent by the API
5) Precompiled letter sent by the API
For notification and notification_history we do an upsert. Here, as the
inbound_sms table is never updated, only inserted to once (signified by
lack of updated_at field), an upsert would be unnecessary.
Therefore, if for some reason the delete statement failed as part of
moving data into the inbound_sms_history table, we can simply just
ignore any db conflicts raised by a rerun of
`delete_inbound_sms_older_than_retention`.
- Check if right keys in new history rows
- Improve model and get rid of old revision version
- Add updated migration file
- Test data when inserting into inbound sms history
Before the search term was either:
- an email address (or partial email address)
- a phone number (or partial phone number)
Now it can also be:
- a reference (or partial reference)
We can take a pretty good guess, by looking at the search term, whether
the thing the user is searching by email address or phone number. This
helps us:
- only show relevant notifications
- normalise the search term to give the best chance of matching what we
store in the `normalised_to` field
However we can’t look at a search term and guess whether it’s a
reference, because a reference could take any format. Therefore if the
user hasn’t told us what kind of thing their search term is, we should
stop trying to guess.
We have a team who want to find emails that might have been sent to an
incorrect address. Therefore they can’t search by the correct address,
because it won’t match.
What they do have is the reference number of the user’s application,
which is also stored in the `client_reference` field on the
notification.
So when a user is searching we should also look at the client reference,
as well as the recipient, allowing the user to enter either in the
search box.
SMS and emails may be marked as `NOTIFICATION_PENDING`. These will be
billed as they will have been sent to the provider and will eventually
turn to a final state such as `NOTIFICATION_DELIVERED` or
`NOTIFICATION_PERMANENT_FAILURE`.
This change will fix a discrepency on the billing page were the number
of messages being billed was less than the number of messages reported
as sent on a services dashboard when some of those messages were in a
pending state.
In reality, I don't think this bug would have had any longer affects for
incorrect billing as messages would not stay in the pending state for
too long and billing calculations would happen after that point.
The table will contain notification ids for services that have returned letters. This will make it easy to query the data in Notification_history since we can join on the primary key.
It is likely this endppoint will need additional data for the UI to display, for the first iteration this will enable the /uploads page to show both letters and jobs. Only letter uploaded by the UI are included in the resultset.
Add file name to resultset.
the nightly task won't be affected, it'll just trigger three times more
sub-tasks.
this doesn't need to be a two-part deploy because we only trigger this
overnight, so as long as the deploy completes in daytime we don't need
to worry about celery task signatures
