As a half-step towards #97507, we need to update the Index Templates UI to discourage the use of legacy index templates. Our goals are to:

  • Encourage long-time users to migrate their legacy templates to composable index templates and component templates
  • Prevent long-time users from creating new legacy index templates
  • Prevent new users from accidentally investing time in legacy templates

We'll do this with two changes:

  • We'll add a callout to the legacy index templates table that advises against using legacy index templates, guides users to composable index templates instead, and provides users with a link to docs on how to migrate.
  • We'll hide the legacy index templates table if it's empty.
