      effect: read
      questions:
      - What's the state of the geo-replication link for my SQL database?
      - Can I see which replica is primary on a specific replication link?

      questions:
      - Can I remove a geo-replication link from a SQL database?
      - Why can't a replication link be deleted during a failover?
      instructions:
      - text: Delete replication link {linkId} of database {databaseName} on server {serverName}.
        slots:

      intent: Fail over to the replica database safely
      effect: write
      questions:
      - How do I make my secondary SQL database the new primary without losing data?
      - Can I do a planned failover on a replication link?
      instructions:

      intent: Force a failover that may lose data
      effect: destructive
      questions:
      - The primary is down, can I force the replica to take over even if data is lost?
      - What's the risk of a forced failover on a replication link?
      instructions:
      - text: Force failover on link {linkId} for {databaseName} on {serverName}, allowing data loss.
        slots:
          linkId: path.linkId
          databaseName: path.databaseName
          serverName: path.serverName
      - text: Promote the replica on link {linkId} of {serverName}/{databaseName} now even if recent writes are lost.

      effect: destructive
      questions:
      - Can I break a replication link gracefully instead of forcing it?
      - What's the difference between a forced and a friendly unlink?
      instructions:
      - text: Unlink replication link {linkId} of {databaseName} on {serverName} in a friendly way.
