Send to Caas: Default value of "Use .html extension" checkbox

[Ben-Zahler]

hi all,
for our project, we don't have any pages that are published with .html extension.
However, the "Send to Caas" tool by default checks the "Use .html extension" checkbox when the env is prod, which brings a major risk of authors publishing incorrect data to CaaS in our case.

I propose to add a config in /tools/sidekick/config.json , I could see the following options:

1. add a config to set the default value per env
2. additionally add a config to completely hide the "Use .html extension" checkbox

• if the checkbox is not displayed, the value configured from Add recommendations #1 is used

My team would be happy to contribute this to Milo.

Are you referring to send to caas from the sidekick or the bulk publisher?

For the bulk publisher, we are working on a v2 that will automatically support this (@cmiqueo has this built).

For the sidekick, we don't have support for that, so your contribution would be great.

Most consumers are using the bulk publisher so the sidekick isn't as high as a priority.

thanks @sanrai , sorry for not following up!
we have added it to our backlog, we have some other prios but there is a good chance that we'd contribute this in early 2025.

@sanrai our team decided to also promote the bulk publish workflow to our authors, so I'm closing this discussion.
