+## Dashboard model, persistent url's and API changes
 
 We are introducing a new unique identifier (`uid`) in the dashboard JSON model. It's automatically
 generated if not provided when creating a dashboard and will have a length of 9-12 characters.
 
-The unique identifier allows having consistent URL's for accessing dashboards and sharing them
-between instances. The new routes and API's for accessing dashboards will use the `uid` instead
-of the `slug`. We'll keep supporting the old routes for accessing dashboards for backward
-compatibility, but please note that we'll deprecate the old slug-based routes in the future.
-This means that changing the title of dashboards will not break any bookmarked links.
+The unique identifier allows having persistent URL's for accessing dashboards, sharing them
+between instances and when using [dashboard provisioning](#dashboards). This means that dashboard can
+be renamed without breaking any links. We're changing the url format for dashboards
+from `/dashboard/db/:slug` to `/d/:uid/:slug`. We'll keep supporting the old slug-based url's for dashboards
+and redirects to the new one for backward compatibility. Please note that the old slug-based url's
+have been deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
 
 Sharing dashboards between instances becomes much easier since the `uid` is unique (unique enough).
 This might seem like a small change, but we are incredibly excited about it since it will make it
 much easier to manage, collaborate and navigate between dashboards.

+### API changes
+New uid-based routes in the dashboard API have been introduced to retrieve and delete dashboards.
+The corresponding slug-based routes have been deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
