Yes, we need user names and I can imagine some cases for potential mixed cohorts, but not sure about prevalence - Jaime

I (and by extension other people in the research team) will probably only ever use user_ids (which we know in advance are valid), so it’s probably best to ask Program Evauation folks or community members who may rely on usernames.

Hi Edward.  Yes, we temporarily lost the UI that shows what users are invalid.  I wasn't sure what exactly people needed here so I didn't hazard a guess.   The data is all there though and I can easily show you invalid users and invalid reasons for your cohort.

I just maybe need you and someone else to say how you'd like it to work and I can whip up a view for it tomorrow.  Dario, any opinion on how invalid users should be displayed?  The only weird part now is that you can't upload again.  You'd have to delete the whole cohort and start over...

Also! Just to introduce myself, I'm one of the interns with the Program Evaluation & Design team - thus this upgrade is very timely. Thank you!

Thanks for this!  Just did a cohort of 15K and it worked fine. I unintentionally hit the "back" button, but after clicking "forward" and my cohort was validated, not even 10 seconds later. 

Also, I can't seem to find the place that listed which users were not valid. Did we lose that ability?

fantastic, is there any chance we could get an even better performance if we allowed users to specify the field type in the upload form (if it’s just user_ids, validation will be faster and the app doesn’t need to check every single entry for a valid user_name too). I understand that by design the application makes no assumption about the type of that field (and in fact it accepts a mix of user_id’s and user_names, correct)?

absolutely, it would run up to 2x faster if the file was all user_ids and the user specified that up front.  But currently, yes, you can mix user_ids and user_names
