Description

@vishaangelova

When PR elastic/docs-builder#2322 is merged, we’ll need to manually adjust some applies_to tags for the new syntax and semantics.

When we do the cleanup, we should review:

Use case Example Action
Different UI/options/settings available in different minor versions Example #1

Example #2
Replace the tag for the earlier functionality with an exact version or a version range.
Different UI/options/settings available in different patches of the same minor Example for a breaking change Only keep the changes for the latest patch.

If it’s a breaking change, keep both options, and explain the difference between versions with plain text.
applies-switch directives where one item is for a specific version (it could also be intended as a version range) Example Replace with an exact version or a version range.
(Page-level) applies_to tags which list the same lifecycle with multiple versions Example #1 (integration docs)

Example #2
1. Check list of identified integration docs to update. What to do about these? TBD.

2. For docs where a feature is added in a patch version as well as in the next minor, only keep the applies_to for the patch, i.e. the earlier minor (e.g., if stack: ga 9.1.0, ga 9.0.6, keep stack: ga 9.0.6)
Tags of the type: {applies_to}`stack: ga 8.19.0, unavailable 9.0.0, ga 9.1.0` Example TBD (maybe remove ga 8.19.0?)

Some identified docs that need to be adjusted (not an exclusive list!):
