How to create Templates

What are Templates?

Templates act as blueprints for devices. They ensure consistency across similar devices and simplify updates.

For example:

• If your company offers three product types, you would create three templates with product-specific content and settings.
• From each template, you can derive multiple devices.
• When you update the template (e.g., adding a new user manual), all associated devices update automatically.
