Replace product analytics dashboard listing with new shared dashboards listing at the project level

Problem to solve

The Dashboards submenu item within the Analytics menu currently points to the Product Analytics dashboards listing. This should point to a more generic Analytics dashboards listing.

Possible solutions

1. Move the existing Product Analytics dashboards listing to appear at /analytics/dashboards rather than /product_analytics/dashboards.
   • This will include moving the frontend files to a new folder structure.
   • This would maintain the existing dashboards view as we see it now, with the PA onboarding flow.
   • We need to have further discussions to make the dashboard page generic to all Analytics
2. Create a new blank dashboard listing page specifically for /analytics/dashboards and point to this page (contents to be filled in by groupproduct analytics and groupoptimize initially).
   • Blank slate which will be defined by the discussions we need to have in UX.
   • Means that we separate out the PA onboarding flow discussion from the dashboards listing immediately and PA work won't hold the generic listing page.
   • Will require us to port over our work later.

Chosen solution

We will create a new blank shared dashboard listing page under /analytics/dashboards at the project-level. This will be styled in the same way as the existing Product Analytics listing.

Implementation plan

backend / frontend - 3️⃣

1. Create a new HAML file in ee/app/views/projects/analytics/dashboards.html.haml to add the Vue anchor point #js-analytics-dashboards-list-app copying the data from ee/app/views/projects/product_analytics/dashboards.haml.
2. Create a new Vue file structure at ee/app/assets/javascripts/analytics/dashboards-list which copies the file structure and code from ee/app/assets/javascripts/product_analytics/dashboards.
3. Add controller to link the route to the view.
4. Copy route to the analytics namespace
5. Show product analytics specific dashboards if cube_api_proxy and product_analytics_internal_preview feature flag's are enabled, the settings exist, the project has the feature, and the user has permissions.
   • project.licensed_feature_available?(:product_analytics) && can?(current_user, :read_product_analytics, project)
   • Onboarding will be handled by Present call-to-actions to configure dashboards... (#388629 - closed)
6. Copy unit specs from ee/spec/frontend/product_analytics/dashboards and remove tests that are no longer needed by the revised code.
7. Copy feature spec from ee/spec/features/projects/product_analytics/dashboards_spec.rb and update to remove tests that are no longer needed by the revised code.
8. Remove ee/lib/ee/sidebars/projects/menus/analytics_menu.rb#L87 product analytics specific feature checks and update path to point to the new /analytics/dashboards URL.
