Clarify report interval copy: host uptime, not Fleet polling - #52107
Clarify report interval copy: host uptime, not Fleet polling#52107noahtalerman wants to merge 8 commits into
Conversation
The Interval help text and "Collecting results..." empty state both implied Fleet actively polls hosts on a schedule. In reality, a host only reports in after it's been online for the selected interval (driven by osquery's own uptime), so the old copy set the wrong expectation for why results take a while to show up.

The text now explains that hosts report new results after they remain online for the configured duration. Moved the “Save as new” button after the “Save” button. Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The updated report-interval guidance correctly focuses on host uptime, but it remains misleading when an interval of 0 disables scheduled execution, which could confuse query configuration.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Handle interval 0 consistently in both modals.
The new help text claims that hosts report results, but interval 0 disables scheduled execution. Render disabled-state copy when the interval is 0.

I don't think it's a big deal, your call to address it or not @noahtalerman

Thanks for calling this out! A "0" frequency looks alright as is:
Also, this made me realize we want to move the "Save" button the left button b/c it has the most visual weight:
@nulmete can you please give this PR another review? Thanks :)
