When connector has no config, unable to view action in integration editor

[kcbabo]

After I've set a start/finish connection in the integration editor and selected an action, the UI moves on to other steps. If I go back to the connection, I can't see which action is used. I think this might have changed when we decided to skip config page when an action had no config parameters.

[kcbabo]

I just need to be able to see which action is used on a connection even if it has no config.

[gashcrumb]

Yeah, I mean the only way you'd see the action is via that config page even if it's empty.

Unless we add the action name to the connection name in the side-bar but that's gonna get terrible looking the moment you pick 'Salesforce Example - Create/Update Contact'

Maybe instead of skipping the config page we just show some text like No configuration is needed for this action and then keep the page. @sjcox-rh @dongniwang ?

[kcbabo]

Yeah, we need to be a bit creative here. I think it would be cool if there was a separate header or something on the config page which had the action name. Config would be below that. Header would always be present when clicking on a connection. Config would only be shown if the action has configuration.

Okay, so I can break up the <h1> tag, so instead of (for example) Configure HTTP GET it's just HTTP GET and then below that we have the configuration section or a note that there's no config necessary.

Linked PR makes this happen instead ->

Perfect!

OK, there's a couple tweaks I'd like to make here. This change now means I have to click Next again if there's no configuration, which I would prefer not to do. Also, if I click on a connection to see the action configuration, I have to click next to get out of the view before doing something else in the UI (e.g. adding a step).

Can I have the best of both worlds? :-)

We could maybe add the action underneath the connection name in the sidebar on a second line? Then it'd be possible to skip that page...

I tried just kinda sticking the action name underneath the connection name but it looked kinda busy. What about using the action name in the integration instead, for example:

or maybe a better example:

[gashcrumb]

K, lemme know how that goes, @sjcox-rh might need to ponder this one longer term.

What the hell... the skinny donut is back again?? But how? I just fixed it lol. Guess only for a single step. Will have to take a look at that when I get back later.

@gashcrumb - This was reopened, is it not complete?

[gashcrumb]

Yeah, I think we can close this now
