Changes to Goal Metrics progress sources

[sasha_f]

tl;dr:

• Goal.Metric.progress_source_category has a new external type
• calls to setMetric with progress_source_category = external will fail
• calls to setMetricCurrentValue when metrics have progress_source_category = external will fail

Hey folks,

We’re working on long-term changes to goal metrics. Today we’re making additions to begin supporting these long-term changes with the inclusion of a new external type of progress_source_category for Goal Metrics. This addition is meant to support future work for Goal Metrics. For the moment, the new external value for progress_source_category should not be used.

New Behavior

• Goal.Metric.progress_source_category may include a new external type

Impact

• If you use Goal Metrics, modify your code to guard against using the new progress_source_category type for setMetricCurrentValue and setMetric

Timeline

• announcement: 2022-10-13 (today)
• generally available: 2022-10-26
• more announcements in 2023
