Understand, explore, and collaborate with Dashboard Details

Miranda Kapin and Will To from Datadog have released the Dashboard Details feature to provide instant context around every dashboard, helping users understand how they're being used in their organization. This new functionality includes a Dashboard Description that explains the intended purpose of a particular dashboard, a Suggested Dashboards section with an auto-generated list of recommended dashboards based on usage patterns, and a Most Active Users section that identifies subject matter experts. With these features, users can simplify cross-team collaboration and get more out of their dashboards by making it easier to troubleshoot issues and understand the data shown. The Dashboard Details panel also includes support for Markdown, allowing users to customize descriptions and edit them directly in the Datadog UI or programmatically through Terraform.
