+ The backup manifest generated by <a class="xref" href="app-pgbasebackup.html" title="pg_basebackup"><span class="refentrytitle"><span class="application">pg_basebackup</span></span></a> is
+ primarily intended to permit the backup to be verified using
+ <a class="xref" href="app-pgverifybackup.html" title="pg_verifybackup"><span class="refentrytitle"><span class="application">pg_verifybackup</span></span></a>. However, it is
+ also possible for other tools to read the backup manifest file and use
+ the information contained therein for their own purposes. To that end,
+ this chapter describes the format of the backup manifest file.
+ </p><p>
+ A backup manifest is a JSON document encoded as UTF-8. (Although in
+ general JSON documents are required to be Unicode, PostgreSQL permits
+ the <code class="type">json</code> and <code class="type">jsonb</code> data types to be used with any
+ supported server encoding. There is no similar exception for backup
+ manifests.) The JSON document is always an object; the keys that are present
+ in this object are described in the next section.
