Annotations provide a way to mark points on the graph with rich events. When you hover over an annotation
you can get title, tags, and text information for the event.

To add an annotation query click dashboard settings icon in top menu and select `Annotations` from the
dropdown. This will open the `Annotations` edit view. Click the `Add` tab to add a new annotation query.
> Note: Annotations apply to all graphs in a given dashboard, not on a per-panel basis.
