Trustworthy progress UX
Admin workflows need trustworthy progress signals—especially for long Graph requests and bulk operations.
When operations take time, users need clear status updates to avoid re-running tasks and creating duplicates.
Server-driven progress (like SSE) makes progress more accurate than guesswork spinners.
Key points
- Prefer server-driven progress updates
- Explain phases in plain language
- Provide a safe cancel option
