Update templates for Process Portal spaces
If you have the appropriate role, you can update an existing template.
The ID that you use to log into a space must belong to the superuser role.
When you update a template, you are creating another version of the template. The original template and the updated version coexist. When you open the Template Manager or when you create a space, you see both versions. However, both versions will have the same name. You can resolve this problem by performing one or more of the following actions before you make your update:
- Delete the original template. If you want to preserve a copy of the old version, export the template first. You can then import the old version when you need it.
- Rename the space that you used to create the template.
For example, if you have a space named Shipping and you rename it to something like Shipping 2.0, when you update the template, there will be a template named Shipping and one named Shipping 2.0.
- Update the description of the space to provide a version and perhaps describe what has changed.
Procedure
- Update the space that was used to create the template. If you do not have the space that was used to create the template any longer, you can create a space based on the template that you want to update.
- When the space is ready, click Manage Spaces. The space opens.
- For the space, click Actions > Save as Template.
