Templates

A template is a form the person saved to reuse, such as a 1:1 with its headings and action table, a work log or a budget table. Each workspace has one list of them, apart from its notes. A template holds text and structure: headings, lists, checklists, tables, quotes, code, links and note references. It never holds images or files: those stay in a note.

Templates are the workspace's forms, not its notes, so a connection reads all of them whatever content it may reach.

• Can read and up list and read them.
• Can add notes saves new ones and changes those this connection saved last; Can edit and organize changes any (403 edit_not_allowed otherwise).
• Add only and Add to Inbox see none.
• Only the person deletes a template, in Settings → Templates.

Find and read

GET /templates lists them by name, 50 at a time. With query, it lists those whose name holds it, ignoring case, and the names that start with it come first. Each has an id, a name, an outline (its headings, or its first line), updated_at and saved_by: the connection that saved it last, or null when the person did.

PATCH /templates/{template_id} changes one: send the revision you read and only what changes, the name, the content or both.
