      summary: Grafana Get Dashboard Versions By ID
      description: Retrieves the version history of a specific Grafana dashboard identified by its unique dashboard ID. This operation returns a list of all saved versions for the dashboard, including metadata such as version numbers, timestamps, user information who made the changes, and version messages or notes. It allows administrators and users to track changes made to a dashboard over time, compare different versions, and understand the evolution of dashboard configurations, which is useful for auditing purposes, troubleshooting issues introduced by recent changes, or reverting to previous dashboard states if needed.

      summary: Grafana Get Dashboard Version By ID
      description: This API operation retrieves a specific version of a Grafana dashboard by providing both the dashboard's unique identifier and the desired version identifier. When invoked using the GET method, it returns the complete configuration and metadata for that particular version of the dashboard, allowing users to view historical snapshots, compare changes between versions, or restore previous dashboard states. This is particularly useful for auditing dashboard modifications, understanding what changes were made over time, and recovering from unwanted updates by accessing earlier working versions of a dashboard's configuration.

      description: This API operation restores a specific version of a Grafana dashboard identified by its unique identifier (UID). When invoked via a POST request to the endpoint /dashboards/uid/{uid}/restore, it allows users to revert a dashboard to a previous state by specifying the desired version number in the request body. This is particularly useful for recovering from unwanted changes, comparing different dashboard iterations, or rolling back to a known working configuration. The operation requires appropriate permissions and returns the restored dashboard's metadata upon successful execution.
