Template

Templates represent a team's use case and define the settings and policies applied during the creation, usage, and archiving of a Microsoft Team. Common use cases for teams include projects, organizational teams, marketing, and more.

Create new template

Where to start?

Templates are created within an organisation. To configure an existing organisation, navigate to Team governance > Organisations > Templates.

Add a team template

In the templates section of the organisation, select Add template to open the template form for new templates.


Choose a name

In the General section, enter the name for the template. This name will be visible to users in the Teams app and can be changed at any time.

Control availability

Select whether this template can be used with the App, API, or both. Choose "None" if the template is deprecated but still in use, or if it is not yet ready for deployment.

Identifier

If you are integrating with the Seamless API, you can enter a organisation-unique identifier for this template, used in the public API. It must start with a letter, end with a letter or number, and contain only lowercase letters, numbers, and dashes.
