- API names are always Title Case, followed by "API"—for example, "Dashboard Permissions API"
- Git is always capitalized, unless part of a code block.
- Abbreviations are always capitalized (such as API, HTTP, ID, JSON, SQL, or URL) unless they are part of a code block.
- Menu and submenu titles always use sentence case: capitalize the first word, and lowercase the rest.

- Lowercase "dashboards" when referring to multiple dashboards.
- **Exceptions:** If a term is lowercased in the Grafana UI, then match the UI.
#### Git, GitHub
Git is always capitalized, unless part of a code block. GitHub is the correct spelling and capitalization.
#### Integrations
In general, "integration" is not capitalized. Only capitalize it if it is capitalized in the UI or part of a proper noun, like the name of a specific integration.
**Examples:**
- MySQL Integration
- CockroachDB Integration
- I installed an integration on my local Grafana.
### Links and references
When referencing another document, use "Refer to" rather than alternatives such as "See" or "Check out."
