Apply a template

AI translated from the German original

Transfer the settings of a template to existing workspaces.

With Apply template settings, Seamless resets existing workspaces to the state of their template. You use this in two cases:

  • Undo deviations: Users changed e.g. the visibility or guest access, and Seamless detected the deviation.
  • Roll out template changes: You adjusted the template and transfer the new settings to existing workspaces.
Setting Template
Group settings Group tab
Visibility Visibility
Guest access Guest access
Sensitivity label Sensitivity labels
Default permissions in Teams Default users
Default permissions in SharePoint SharePoint access
Permissions on additional document libraries Document libraries
Property bag Property bag
Sharing settings SharePoint sharing

Seamless does not transfer other template settings.

  1. Open Groups → Manage and select the workspaces.

    For a single workspace, select only that one. The action is not available in the workspace details.

  2. Click Bulk operations → Apply template settings.

  3. Enable Reset permissions if needed.

  4. Click Apply template settings.

Seamless applies the template in the background. Seamless does not show any progress. Check the result in the workspace.

Without Reset permissions, Seamless only adds the template permissions. Existing permissions remain.

With Reset permissions, only the template applies afterwards:

  • Seamless removes all permissions that are not in the template, including members and owners in Teams.
  • Seamless restores the original permissions in SharePoint.
  • Primary contact and deputy are preserved.
