Creating templates with Automation
Hey All,
I am creating a template including automations for reminders. My goal is to make this a template, but now im unsure that all my automations will be stored in the template or if its just creating a sheet template. Does anyone know! I hope this is a yes!
HELP !
Thank you!

Hi Lauren,
Yes, it will work! There are settings when you save and use the template to select what you want.
Hope that helps!
Have a fantastic week!

Andree,
Correct me if I am wrong, but it will NOT save specific email addresses built into the Automations. It will save if you have it set to send to contacts in a Contact type column though.

Thank you! I ended up creating a test and saw that the automation carried over

Paul,
I think this may not be true however, my workaround is an " assigned to " column. As people and roles are ever-changing and this assigned to section can be changed on a dime.

Paul,
You are correct! It's because of security it doesn't work with specific contacts.

I thought it was true, but I never knew why. It makes sense though. Thanks for confirming.

Andree;
My API developer seems to have tried everything to generate a new sheet using a template which contains workflows, however, when the sheet is created using the API it does not carry over the workflows...
If you create the sheet manually using the template, it works, however, the API does not seem to want to create the workflows on the new sheet...
Any insight would be AWESOME!

Did you get a solve for this? If not, have your developer add rules and ruleRecipients to the include parameter when creating a sheet from template. Worked for me.
