Updates feature availability.
Banners is a feature that is already GA'd since Unleash 5.7, so beta
availability seems irrelevant now.
We removed the mention of planning to GA Signals & Actions in 5.12,
since that's not happening and we would prefer not to include these
mentions in the future.
Hello,
As discussed with @sighphyre, there were a number of problems with the
examples docs. This addresses the most pressing ones, namely:
- Corrected the link to the Jira plugin
- Added deprecation warning to Jira Server pages
- Removed the incomplete markdown table at the end of articles, and the
references to it

This change addresses the question in #6542 about using non-string
operators on string values by clarifying that Unleash SDK converts the
string values before performing the comparison.

## About the changes
When edge is configured to automatically generate tokens, it requires
the token to be present in all unleash instances.
It's behind a flag which enables us to turn it on on a case by case
scenario.
The risk of this implementation is that we'd be adding load to the
database in the middleware that evaluates tokens (which are present in
mostly all our API calls. We only query when the token is missing but
because the /client and /frontend endpoints which will be the affected
ones are high throughput, we want to be extra careful to avoid DDoSing
ourselves
## Alternatives:
One alternative would be that we merge the two endpoints into one.
Currently, Edge does the following:
If the token is not valid, it tries to create a token using a service
account token and /api/admin/create-token endpoint. Then it uses the
token generated (which is returned from the prior endpoint) to query
/api/frontend. What if we could call /api/frontend with the same service
account we use to create the token? It may sound risky but if the same
application holding the service account token with permission to create
a token, can call /api/frontend via the generated token, shouldn't it be
able to call the endpoint directly?
The purpose of the token is authentication and authorization. With the
two tokens we are authenticating the same app with 2 different
authorization scopes, but because it's the same app we are
authenticating, can't we just use one token and assume that the app has
both scopes?
If the service account already has permissions to create a token and
then use that token for further actions, allowing it to directly call
/api/frontend does not necessarily introduce new security risks. The
only risk is allowing the app to generate new tokens. Which leads to the
third alternative: should we just remove this option from edge?
This change updates the change request scheduling docs to include
information about what happens when a strategy or segment is updated
in the background, as well as updated information about the emails
that it sends out.
We want to deprecate and eventually remove the option for admin tokens.
This PR updates the docs to inform readers about the deprecation as well
as recommending what they can use instead.
This PR describes in closer detail what happens when the user who
scheduled a change request is deleted. It mentions the new suspended
state and what the user can do to get out of it.
This commit updates the change request docs to talk about how the new
scheduled state works.
The subsection is marked as "in development", saying that it can
change at any moment until the feature is released.
As discovered in the recent segments breakathon, the docs aren't very
clear about how conflicts are handled. This PR better documents when
they can't be deleted or moved. It also mentions the edge case where a
segment is used in an archived flag (it still can't be deleted, so you
must either delete the flag, or revive it and remove the segment)
Added a detailed explanation into how frontend / client-side SDKs behave
with regards to fetching multiple feature flags and network
connectivity.

and Chris).
## About the changes
Refactor the main nav, with the following goals:
* Communicate the value of each section vs the format (ex:
“Understanding Unleash” vs “Topic Guides”)
* Make space for the Feature Flag tutorials section that we’re starting
to build
* Scope updates to navigation and pages that need updates based on new
URLs & organization
* Update URLs to follow the new hierarchy without breaking links (adding
redirects & editing internal links between pages as needed)
### Important files
sidebar.js
docusaurus.config.js
## Discussion points
* Redirects can't be tested out of prod, which is a bummer :/
* Some URLs have been preserved untouched while we monitor for potential
negative SEO impact of client-side redirects
* It's a large PR (sorry). Nav changes and file movements impacted lots
of files.

### What
This PR makes the rate limit for user creation and simple login (our
password based login) configurable in the same way you can do
metricsRateLimiting.
### Worth noting
In addition this PR adds a `rate_limit{endpoint, method}` prometheus
gauge, which gets the data from the UnleashConfig.
### What
The heaviest requests we serve are the register and metrics POSTs from
our SDKs/clients.
This PR adds ratelimiting to /api/client/register, /api/client/metrics,
/api/frontend/register and /api/frontend/metrics with a default set to
6000 requests per minute (or 100 rps) for each of the endpoints.
It will be overrideable by the environment variables documented.
### Points of discussion
@kwasniew already suggested using featuretoggles with variants to
control the rate per clientId. I struggled to see if we could
dynamically update the middleware after initialisation, so this attempt
will need a restart of the pod to update the request limit.
PR contains the following:
1) New video embeds for the following docs:
- website/docs/reference/deploy/environment-import-export.mdx
- website/docs/reference/playground.mdx
- website/docs/reference/strategy-constraints.md
- website/docs/topics/a-b-testing.md
2) Improvements to the Academy course playlist embedding for the three
Academy courses. Tested the standard method of embedding video, and it
seems this works well for playlists too.
Switching to the native Docusaurus embed solves the issue with dynamic
resizing. Rather than a static embed size the video will now scale to
the browser window size.
Adds a small troubleshooting guide for Unleash features availability.
This is not specific to features that have a visual component in the
admin UI, but that's the most common scenario.

I added the events that I thought were relevant based on my own
discretion. Know of any event we should add? Let me know and I'll add it
🙂
For now I only added these events to the new Slack App integration, but
we can add them to the other integrations as well since they are now
supported.
The event formatter was refactored and changed quite a bit in order to
make it easier to maintain and add new events in the future. As a
result, events are now posted with different text. Do we consider this a
breaking change? If so, I can keep the old event formatter around,
create a new one and only use it for the new Slack App integration.
I noticed we don't have good 404 behaviors in the UI for things that are
deleted in the meantime, that's why I avoided some links to specific
resources (like feature strategies, integration configurations, etc),
but we could add them later if we improve this.
This PR also tries to add some consistency to the the way we log events.
