New dashboard APIs now enabled by default

With this release, we’re rethinking our dashboard APIs and making the default a new model that is consistent, versioned, and resource-oriented. 

We started the rollout in May. Since then, we’ve gathered feedback, measured impact, and improved testing. We’re now confident the APIs are stable and have made them the default.

The new APIs make Git Sync possible, and are the key change that powers our new Terraform provider and the creation of the GrafanaCTL CLI tool. Currently, only dashboards, folders, and a few other elements, such as announcement banners and playlists, use this new model; however, we plan to expand it to all Grafana resources.

For more information, refer to the documentation.
