Services in Nobl9 are organized under projects. A service can represent a logical service endpoint like an internal or external API, a database, or anything else you care about setting an SLO for, such as a user journey. Put differently, a service in the Nobl9 platform is something that you want to track for reliability using SLOs the service contains.

To create a service on the Nobl9 Web, do the following:

1. Go to Catalog > Services.
2. Click .
3. Select a Project (mandatory).
   Project is a way to organize your Nobl9 resources and manage access to them.
   When Project is skipped, Nobl9 uses the default project.
4. Enter a Display Name (optional).
   Spaces are allowed.
5. Enter a Name (mandatory).
   The name is mandatory and can only contain lowercase, alphanumeric characters, and dashes (for example, my-project-1). Nobl9 duplicates the display name here, transforming it into the supported format, but you can edit the result.
6. Select or add Labels.
   Labels have a specific format and must conform to the following rules:
   

   • key: value format
   • key can contain only lowercase alphanumeric characters, underscores, and dashes; must start with a letter and end with an alphanumeric character; maximum length 63 characters
   • value can contain Unicode characters; maximum length 200 characters
   • Maximum of 30 labels attached
7. Enter a Description (optional).
   Provide extra details about it, its purpose, responsible persons, etc.
   Up to 1050 characters.
8. Assign Responsible users to act as a point of contact with any questions regarding your service.
9. Enterprise
   Schedule a review.
   • Set a start date for your schedule and select the time zone
   • Specify the Repeat option to set up the review cycle frequency.
     You can select one of the predefined frequency options or enter a Custom recurrence rule in the iCalendar format or use the rrule generator.
