[Website]: Why did you removed the Canvas expression lifecycle from the doc

[faroukellouzerexel]

Type of issue

None

What documentation page is affected

https://www.elastic.co/docs/explore-analyze/visualize/canvas/canvas-function-reference

What happened?

In the previous versions of the doc (8.x), there was a very useful called "Canvas expression lifecycle" that explains in details how the expressions works. I can't find it anymore in the new doc

Additional info

Hi @faroukellouzerexel Thank you for reporting this issue. We have added it to our backlog for prioritization in an upcoming sprint. We will provide updates as we make progress. Your feedback is invaluable in maintaining the quality of our documentation.

We've removed this documentation because Canvas has been in maintenance mode since 9.0. Users cannot access Canvas in Kibana after 9.0 without already having a workpad imported.

Additionally, this documentation was not entirely accurate, and some of its aspects were more aspirational or theoretical than functional.

I'd recommend that we leave it in place for the 8.x documentation, and keep it out of the 9.x documentation.

Thanks @ThomThomson
We will re-add these documents to the 8.x versions where they are missing (8.17, 8.18, 8.19) and leave them out of 9.0+ docs.

Docs are restored for 8.17, 8.18, and 8.19. Closing.
