+
+### Guide to the manager
+
+The main window looks like this:
+
+![Service Manager](screenshots/managerservice.jpg)
+
+On the main page you can see the list of services and manage each service separately.
+
+Column description
+* "**Name**" shows the name of the service.
+* "**URL**" indicates the address of the service to which notifications are received.
+* "**Actions**" allows you to enable / disable the service, edit and delete.
+
+Description of control buttons:
+* "**Add service**" opens a page for creating a new service.
+* "**Backup**" loads the backup file of the service list.
+* "**Restore**" redirects the data recovery page from the backup.
+
+### Guide to the editor
+
+During the editing and creation of the service, this page opens:
+
+![Service Editor](screenshots/editservice.jpg)
+
+The field "**Name**" stores an arbitrary name for the service
+
+The "**URL**" field stores the address of the service to which notifications will be sent as a POST request.
+
+The "**Token**" field allows you to specify an individual key that will allow an external service to identify requests.
+
+The "**Advanced**" field stores a large string passed to the service.
+This can be useful for some services or users.
+
+The "**Content Type**" field allows you to configure the type of outbound requests if there are compatibility issues.
+
+The "**All events**" list contains a list of all events registered in the system.
+The selected events will notify the service.
+

+[JSON](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON)
