# Manual changes

Manual changes let you enter anything that you want tracked in Sleuth. Such changes are those not tracked by source code, feature flags, or another type of change that Sleuth [currently supports](/sleuth-dora/integrations-1/about-integrations.md). They are a free-form entry that can have any name or description you'd like.

To add a manual change:

1. Click **Create** then **Add Manual Change** in the sidebar.
2. Give the manual change a **Name** and **Description**.
3. Press **Create**.

{% hint style="info" %}
A sample webhook with your project data pre-populated is displayed (see image below).
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Do not share the webhook link with anyone outside of your organization.** The dynamically-generated command contains your private Sleuth API key and other private information.
{% endhint %}

![curl information in Add Manual Change page](/files/-M7aAeZreikVqVcJVBl4)

The manual change will be visible on your project dashboard and displayed just like any other source of change and deploy. Manual changes are not updated nor managed by Sleuth; you'll need to maintain them on your own.

{% hint style="info" %}
Manual changes can be also be [submitted via the Sleuth API](/sleuth-dora/sleuth-api.md#manual-change).
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.sleuth.io/sleuth-dora/modeling-your-deployments/manual-changes.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
