 ## About
 
+### Collecting diffs
+
 With this plugin you can find diff between the rendered configuration for a device to its actual configuration, retrieved from the device itself, or stored in DataSource.
 Read about [DataSources](https://demo.netbox.dev/static/docs/models/core/datasource/) for further details.
 
 Device configuration renders natively in NetBox. This [feature](https://demo.netbox.dev/static/docs/features/configuration-rendering/) was introduced in 3.5 version.
  NetBox Labs [blog](https://netboxlabs.com/blog/how-to-generate-device-configurations-with-netbox/) post about it.
 
 Plugin supports a wide list of vendors (Cisco, Juniper, Huawei, MicroTik etc.) with the help of Scrapli. Read [Scrapli](https://carlmontanari.github.io/scrapli/user_guide/project_details/#supported-platforms) and [scrapli-community](https://scrapli.github.io/scrapli_community/user_guide/project_details/#supported-platforms) documentations to find full list of vendors.
+
+### Pushing configuration
+
+Also you can push rendered configuration from NetBox to device and apply it.
+
+Supported platforms:
+
+* `arista_eos`
+* `cisco_iosxe`
+* `cisco_iosxr`
+* `cisco_nxos`
+* `juniper_junos`
+
+This is possible thanks to the scrapli_cfg. Read [Scrapli](https://github.com/scrapli/scrapli_cfg/) documentation for more info.

+# Usage
+
+With plugin you can push rendered configuration from NetBox to devices.
+
+Supported platforms:
+
+* `arista_eos`
+* `cisco_iosxe`
+* `cisco_iosxr`
+* `cisco_nxos`
+* `juniper_junos`
+
+Plugin using [scrapli-cfg](https://github.com/scrapli/scrapli_cfg) for this feature.
+
+## Substitutes
+
+If you render not full configuration, it is acceptable to pull missing config sections from the actual configuration to render full configuration.
+
+!!! note
+    If you render full configuration in NetBox, you can proceed to `Configuration Request` part
+
+To do that you should create substitute.
+
+Substitutes is a "tag" that needs to be replaced with output from the real device, and a regex pattern that "pulls" this section from the actual device itself.
+
+![Screenshot of the substitute](media/screenshots/substitute.png)
+
+In screenshot below we add substitute for Arista PlatformSetting
+
+* **Name** is a "tag", you should put this as jinja2 variable in your config template in NetBox
+* **Regexp** is a regex, that "pulls" what matched from device and replace `Name` jinja2 variable in config template
+
+In example substitute `ethernet_interfaces` section will be replaced with whatever the provided pattern finds from the real device.
+
+This pattern matches all ethernet interfaces on a Arista device.
+
+To correctly render substitute in config template you have two options:
+
+```
+{{ "{{ ethernet_interfaces }}" }}
+```
+
+or
+
+```
+{% raw %}{{ ethernet_interfaces }}{% endraw %}
+```
+
+Config template will look like:
+
+![Screenshot of the config template with substitute](media/screenshots/config-temp-substitute.png)
+
+And rendered config template with substitute
+
+![Screenshot of the rendered template with substitute](media/screenshots/render-temp-substitute.png)
+
+## Configuration Request
+
+Now you let's create `Configuration Request` with devices you want to configure.
+
+!!! warning
+    For request only accepts devices with `Active` status and assigned Platform, Primary IP, Config Template and PlatformSetting
+
+Find `Configuration Requests` in navbar.
+
+Now collect diffs for devices pressing `Collecting diffs` button.
+
+![Screenshot of the Collecting diffs button](media/screenshots/cr-collecting-diff-button.png)
+
+On tab `Diffs` you can review diffs for devices.
+
+![Screenshot of the Diffs tab](media/screenshots/cr-diffs-tab.png)
+
+To continue approve request by pressing `Approve` button.
+
+![Screenshot of the Approve button](media/screenshots/cr-approve-button.png)
+
+Also you can cancel approve after that.
+
+![Screenshot of the Unapprove button](media/screenshots/cr-unapprove-button.png)
+
+After approval you can see by whom configuration request is approved.
+
+![Screenshot of the Approved request](media/screenshots/cr-approved.png)
+
+At this moment you can schedule job that will push rendered configuration to devices in configuration request by pressing schedule button.
+
+![Screenshot of the Schedule button](media/screenshots/cr-schedule-button.png)
+
+After that you can see by whom configuration request is scheduled and time.
+
+![Screenshot of the Scheduled request](media/screenshots/cr-scheduled.png)
+
+Also you can cancel scheduled job by pressing `Unschedule` button.
+
+![Screenshot of the Unschedule button](media/screenshots/cr-unschedule-button.png)
+
+!!! warning
+    Approve and Schedule buttons is accessable only to user with `netbox_config_diff.approve_configurationrequest`
+    permission
+
+!!! warning
+    If you unapprove scheduled configuration request, scheduled job will be canceled
+
+After scheduled job is completed you can job logs on configuration request page.
+
+![Screenshot of the Unschedule button](media/screenshots/cr-job-log.png)
+
+!!! note
+    Completed configuration requests can't be edited.
+
+## Rollback
+
+If an error occurs while executing a job that pushes configurations to devices then all configured devices will be rollbacked to the previous version of the configuration.
