Description

The Lighthouse API team has asked if any of our apps utilize EVSS services. The current EVSS Services will be going away.

• [x] Determine whether any of our applications leverage EVSS - [ ] Add to spreadsheet below (on VA.gov network):

Hi @kellylein - James checked the code and isn't seeing any references to EVSS but can you provide the hostnames so we can double-check to be sure? Or any suggestion on another way to check?

• @MickinSahni

[kellylein]

I'm not sure about the host names but @drorva may be able to help more there.

[SKasimow]

Hi @drorva - can you provide some guidance to us on how we can determine whether our apps use EVSS today?

So http://grafana.vfs.va.gov/d/XYv1D0D7k/external-service-front-end-source?orgId=1&var-data_source=Prometheus%20(Production)&var-frontend_app=All&var-service=All shows the relationship between frontend apps and backends.

The frontend app names are described in https://raw.githubusercontent.com/department-of-veterans-affairs/content-build/master/src/applications/registry.json and backends.

Note however, that apps that submit via a background job are not included in here. It's only apps where the frontend talks directly to vets-api and waits for the result that are covered.

The following are the EVSS ones AFAICT.

EVSS/Claims <- claims-status EVSS/Claims <- dashboard EVSS/Claims <- mobile EVSS/Common <- dashboard EVSS/Common <- disability-my-rated-disabilities EVSS/Common <- profile EVSS/DisabilityCompensationForm <- 526EZ-all-claims EVSS/DisabilityCompensationForm <- disability-my-rated-disabilities EVSS/Documents <- mobile EVSS/GiBillStatus <- 10203-edu-benefits EVSS/GiBillStatus <- post-911-gib-status EVSS/Letters <- letters EVSS/Letters <- mobile

Thank you @drorva

@jchilders need your comment on what research was done and why incomplete.

@jchilders need your comment on what research was done and why incomplete.

Here's an example of what I did for mine. Take, tweak, or toss...

[SKasimow]

@jchilders - does drovas comment above help you to determine whether we are using EVSS today?

No EVSS endpoints appear to be being called during either the 10-10EZ or 10-10CG form submission processes.

Details

• No references to evss in any 10-10-related code found. Examined HealthCareApplication (model), lib/hca/* (HCA services), lib/carma (CG services)
• Examined log output. No references to evss seen after filling out, submitting either of the EZ or CG forms.
• The spreadsheet in this story's description makes reference to an EVSS endpoint regarding addresses. That endpoint is called by vets-api (see here), but this is not referenced by anything 10-10 related that I could tell.

Ok so I matched up the FE applications below with the entry If found in the FE registry, doesn't look like any are ours.
