"no-as-a-service" easter egg
We've been dealing with a LOT of brain-breaking issues lately. I won't rehearse them all here, but they're all basically caused by the SharePoint integration for Workfront. Just seeing the word "SharePoint" makes me want to curse.
Unrelated to SharePoint, an IT engineer friend of mine shared "No as a service," which is hysterically funny to me. I love an API which only exists to provide funny and lame excuses as to why something cannot be done. It's so pointless but in the best way possible.
I wanted to figure out a use for this silly thing. I needed a mental break to do something Fusion related which had nothing to do with our SharePoint misery. So, I made my first Fusion-based easter egg.
In our help queue, if you add the phrase "no-as-a-service" in one of the fields, Fusion will bypass our usual support ticket routing and give you a lame excuse.
It's a simple little thing; this is what it looks like:

It's pretty simple; it's just making a GET call to https://naas.isalman.dev/no, parsing out the excuse, creating an update, then deleting the support ticket. (Deleting the support ticket is important IMHO. I want our actual support tickets to count for/against us, and not a silly easter egg that only our support team knows about.)
I've used it a few times already when I need a dumb reason why I shouldn't do something.


Granted, this isn't the most work-centered way of using Fusion. But as one of the two people here who work and manage the Fusion platform here, it's good to have a mental break sometime. Plus, I think if some users discover this easter egg, it'll give them a little spark of delight.
