Task: Remove redundant get template details call as we already have all the info in the get templates call

[rahulbarwal]

<@U04V0N2K0G1> <@U04LTQU5E8K> I noticed that we are calling the API GET /api/v1/app-templates/{templatedId} when any template is opened in a preview mode. But the get All active templates api/v1/app-templates which is used for rendering the templates homepage has the data available already. Can you guys remove this API call and fetch it from the browser cache?

Slack Message

@rahulbarwal , @Nikhil-Nandagopal , i have noticed an API call to GET /api/v1/app-templates/{templateId} when opening a template in preview mode. This seems redundant since the GET /api/v1/app-templates call already has the necessary data.
Could you check if there are more details in the linked Slack message? i am unable to access it and want to see if i can proceed with this task.

Basically when we land on app.appsmith.com we load all templates using /api/v1/app-templates and that list gets stored in redux.

• Now if a user opens Create new > Templates - a modal with templates open open.
• If we go to any of templates detail page we make another call to /api/v1/app-templates/{templateId}
• What we noticed is that this second api call does not send any new information, than already given by request 1 above. Instead we can just filter the existing templates list to get the {templateId}

The second request can be removed completely from the UI.
