mention both Dashboards and endpoint (#7638)

* mention both Dashboards and endpoint

Old text said that Dashboards are a prerequisite for using PPL, and mentioned only the Query Workbench, not the _ppl endpoint.

Is it really true that Dashboards are a prerequisite? Or is it just the SQL plugin that is a prerequisite?

 ## Using PPL within OpenSearch
 
-To use PPL, you must have installed OpenSearch Dashboards. PPL is available within the [Query Workbench tool](https://playground.opensearch.org/app/opensearch-query-workbench#/). See the [Query Workbench]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/dashboards/query-workbench/) documentation for a tutorial on using PPL within OpenSearch.
+The SQL plugin is required to run PPL queries in OpenSearch. If you're running a minimal distribution of OpenSearch, you might have to [install the SQL plugin]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/install-and-configure/plugins/) before using PPL.
+{: .note}
+
+You can run PPL queries interactively in OpenSearch Dashboards or programmatically using the ``_ppl`` endpoint. 
+
+In OpenSearch Dashboards, the [Query Workbench tool](https://playground.opensearch.org/app/opensearch-query-workbench#/) provides an interactive testing environment, documented in [Query Workbench documentation]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/dashboards/query-workbench/).

+To run a PPL query using the API, see [SQL and PPL API]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/search-plugins/sql/sql-ppl-api/).
