Hi @patrickywl, I've left a ton of feedback but it's mostly around formatting. Thanks so much for this PR! Aside from my suggestions, some general notes:
- lots of terms such as member account should be in lowercase unless they are product/feature names
- I think all the content under line 139 (Configure the Cost and Usage Report settings in Datadog) can be consolidated into one step. for ex:
-
- the last image doesn't show the "Activate now button" (but the previous one does), so not sure what we're trying to show there. i would remove it.
happy to work with you on this further!

Hi @rtrieu, I have updates based on your feedback. Here’s a quick summary of what I changed: • For further reading • For "lots of terms such as member account should be in lowercase unless they are product/feature names" and not product/feature names • For "it feels like the headers here are too big for a short checklist." • For "missing a lot of context here. how about something like this:" • For "this appears to be duplicate information from the previous section" Let me know if you’d like me to adjust anything further. |
