Hi
We need to keep in mind that application key is used in the urls. So I don’t
like the idea of making it a timestamp kind of thing. It should be in readable
IMO.

Hi All,
In the current UI when we are creating a new application , it will validate the
application name and application key to be unique. In the new UI given by UX
team, there is no application key input field.
As they have suggested, application key can be generated with timestamps in any
appropriate place but the application name should not be unique.
Hence,
1) Is good to hide the application key from the UI. If so, In which place we
should generate application key ?
If we are going to hide the application key, then we have to make sure that the
key is unique, or else it has to be validated for it's uniqueness underline.
IMO we can generate the appkey just before submitting the application creation.
2) Do we need to validate the application name ?
If we don't validate application name, same user can create multiple
applications with simillar name (ideally we expect users won't do that), which
will make it hard to differentiate the application from first sight in User
Home.
Thanks,
