HIGH: "Refactor "Workspace welcome message" to be "Workspace description" (1/2, internal)

Open quinthar opened this issue 6 months ago • 8 comments

Problem: Right now when you go to invite someone to a workspace, you can provide a custom invite message. But you'd never guess that the message:

  • Is saved for the next invite
  • Is also shared with new employees in the Workspace Chat

So it's not really an "invite message", it's more of a description.

Solution: Mirror the design of the room description and refactor the server and client to call this a "workspace description", which is more intuitively accurate. This consists of:

  1. add an updateWorkspaceDescription API command that updates a description attribute of the workspace
  2. return this description along with the workspace object
  3. update the client to use this description everywhere the "welcome message" currently is.

Note: we will leave the invite message as-is on OldDot.
