Background & Business Value

In order to use the Teams feature, we need to transfer the existing Functional Accounts into Team accounts. This transition will require coordination with all the development teams that have already created functional accounts. We will also need to development documentation for the switch over, along with redeveloping documentation on how to create and manage accounts.

Goals

  • Plan Transition Process
    • Determine steps and control points
  • Develop Transition Documentation
  • Redevelop New User Documentation

Potential Email to Functional Accounts

Hello <functional-email> Team!

We a happy to announce a new Teams feature at https://developer.ucsb.edu. This new feature will replace the need for Functional Accounts (link needed ... after the documentation is updated). Instead your individual email accounts will be able to be associated with Teams. And, your accounts can be a part of multiple teams, if you work with multiple groups on campus.

To make this change possible we would like your help in handling a change over. Below is an outline of how we would like to do this, with pieces we would like you to do in bold.

  • We are sending these emails to all Functional Accounts.
  • For each email sent we would like to get a response back that includes the Team name that you would like to replace the Functional Account with.
    • We would like you to reply to this email with the new Team Name.
  • We would also like to know the list of people that will be on the new Team.
    • The reply should also include the Team members Individual Email Accounts that are setup in https://developer.ucsb.edu.
    • The system requires an individual Team Owner. This is the person that always has the ability to Add/Remove Team members. They can also grant other Team members the ability to Add/Remove Team members.
  • We will use the information provided to create a new Team and add Members to it.
  • We will also Copy (not Move) all Applications associated with a Functional Account over to the new Team.
    • The Copied Applications will have new API Keys
  • Once we have the Applications copied over, we will send a reply email back to you letting you know that the new Team is setup and you are ready to try it out (Yeah!!).
  • At this point, we would like you to try it out by logging into https://developer.ucsb.edu (using your Individual Account) and follow the guidance to find your Team application and it's new API Key. (link needed)
  • We would like for your Team to update your applications to use the new API Keys within about a month of the Copied Applications being created.
  • Once you've verified the new API Keys and updated your Applications to use them, please reply to the most recent email and let us know you are using the new API Keys (and you are no longer using the old API Keys).
  • Once we've received confirmation that the old API Keys are no longer being used, we will remove the old Functional Account.
  • That's It! Everything's transferred over and you can enjoy using Teams to manage your Applications!
