I like it. Slightly worried about how to ship it without disrupting... it is intuitive, but user guides.... #discuss |

Rationale‘Upload recipients’ and ‘Send to one recipient’ have always been slightly clunky phrases. Now that basic view jumps straight into the ‘Send to one recipient’ flow there’s no way for users to get to the ‘Upload recipients’ flow. By adding a link to it from the ‘Send to one recipient’ flow it’s possible for users of basic view to access it. But we don’t want to introduce too much inconsistency between basic view and admin view because users will be migrating from one to another. They might also be talking to their manager, who wouldn’t be able to tell them where to click if they were looking at two completely different interfaces. This also means that we can keep the left-hand navigation in basic view nice and simple with the two options (‘Templates’ and ‘Sent messages’ – see #2164), rather than trying to introduce something like ‘Send one message’ and ‘Send lots of messages’ later on. |

We might want to contact teams who are sending lots of jobs. Here are the live services that have sent 4 or more jobs this month (ie using it weekly on average):

…and out the teams who’ve sent messages this month, how many distinct users have been doing the uploading?

Now that you can access upload from within the send one off message flow, it doesn’t need its own linkbutton on the template page.
Now the text is smaller (fewer words) it looks a bit wrong bunched up on the left. the only other page this affects is ‘API integration’.
For consistency.
