API Name When Granting Permission on App is misleading

[lmahoney1]

In bullet point 4 of section Create an app the instructions say to type Microsoft Cloud App Security when typing in the API to give permissions to. There is also a 'note' blurb stating:

Microsoft Cloud App Security does not appear in the original list. Start writing its name in the text box to see it appear. Make sure to type this name, even though the product is now called Defender for Cloud Apps.

However, the screenshot shown directly after the instructions and blurb show the user typing in 'Defender for Cloud Apps'.

I feel this is slightly confusing. I'm assuming Microsoft Cloud App Security should be used, but the discrepancy prevents me from being fully confident.
