Manage project templates

The options presented below are available only for users with Project Admin permissions.

Starting from v6.5.0 users with granted custom permission “Manage Smart Checklist Templates” can manage Project Templates too (when custom permissions are toggled on). Read more Set-up Custom Permissions.

However, System Admins can manage Project Templates through the admin console under Global Templates context. Read more Manage global templates.

Smart Checklist template management is accessible from:

  • the "Import from a template" or “Manage templates“ menu item.

  • Administration → Manage apps → Smart Checklist Settings → Templates tab
