Re: Short name as a system setting

 

Hi there,

I guess this is not really a question of whether it makes sense, rather
that nobody has asked for it ;)

The analytics API
<https://docs.dhis2.org/master/en/developer/html/webapi_analytics.html>
already supports this behavior so adding it to the clients should not be
difficult.

What would be the main usecase here?

regards,

Lars
