Creating a template
Workspace templates are used to create workspaces by defining the structure of a workspace. This structure includes containers, their hierarchy, and names.
Creating a workspace template requires two steps:
Defining the basic template. This defines the basic information about the template, such as its name, default custom property aliases, and default security.
Defining the container structure. This defines the container structure, their hierarchy, and creation requirements. For information and procedures to define container structure, see Creating a folder structure.
