- The new base path for Operate webapp is `/operate`, and for Tasklist webapp, it is `/tasklist`.
- The full URL for Operate webapp will be `{hostname}/operate` or `{hostname}/{operate-contextPath}/operate`, and similarly for Tasklist.
- Any calls to `{hostname}` or `{hostname}/{operate-contextPath}` will automatically be redirected to `{hostname}/operate` or `{hostname}/{operate-contextPath}/operate` respectively, with the same logic applying to Tasklist.

We need to make it clear that the 1st case works only with Separated Ingress ({hostname} redirects to {hostname}/operate ), and the 2nd case works only with Combined Ingress ({hostname}/operate redirects {hostname}/{operate-contextPath}/operate)

It's also important to know that the Separated Ingress is deprecated in 8.6 and will be removed in 8.7

Do we mean the Operate and Tasklist components?

Hi @christinaausley,
Using “components” might sound too broad. I want to emphasis that this is applicable to the web interfaces urls (Operate and Tasklist UIs) and not to the Operate and Tasklist API urls, so I think "web applications" word is more appropriate.

@christinaausley I think we should use "web applications" instead of "components". WDYT?

@akeller I feel like we've had a handful of discussion on this, what do you think about this particular instance? CC @camunda/tech-writers

Good spot @christinaausley, but I really like @houssain-barouni's reasoning:

I want to emphasis that this is applicable to the web interfaces urls (Operate and Tasklist UIs) and not to the Operate and Tasklist API urls

A component consists of a UI and an API, but a web app makes sense only when we talk about the UI. Component remains the product/brand name, but at the technical level, it's a web application. Great discussion!

@christinaausley if we can't get alignment next week, let's not consider this blocking. I do want clear definitions, but it shouldn't block merging this.

My understanding is that we will move back to the original endpoints in 8.7. We should consider phrasing in a way to indicate this.

How about "We are currently using a new base path for both the Operate and Tasklist web applications. This change applies to both Self-Managed and SaaS environments." Do we already have an issue open to adjust this for the 8.7 release? I can add one to my docs backlog if not.

@theburi I think your are referring to camunda/camunda#23021 (related to https://github.com/camunda/product-hub/issues/2376) ?
I think it will not make it for 8.7.
