Templates in depth

Every control and text this screen shows, in screen order. The list is read from the demo by a crawl, and CI fails when the screen changes without its entry here.

Webhooks > Templates holds every payload format an endpoint can send, built in or your own.

The screen as a whole: Templates.

The numbers match the entries below. The picture shows the first screenful; controls further down, and texts, have no marker.
