Improve UX when there is no corresponding provisioner for a workspace/template #15048

@bpmct

Description

@bpmct

Since more and more of our users are using external provisioners and provisioner tags, especially with Organizations, we should explore ways to improve the UX when a provisioner is not running.

Current state

Create/duplicate template

Suggestion: "No provisioners are running with the tag provisioner=missing in the data-science org. Learn more about provisioners in the Coder documentation"

Create workspace

Suggestion: "No provisioners are running with the tag provisioner=missing in the data-science org.
Learn more about provisioners in the Coder documentation"

Desired state

  • Some meaningful and actionable error. One suggestion:

    No provisioners are running with the tag provisioner=missing in the data-science org
    Learn more about provisioners in the Coder documentation"

  • Perhaps a custom troubleshooting URL for users, similar to the agent as the organization/template may have internal docs about provisioners work in their organization.
