User Templates ​
This page contains instructions on how to configure a user account using a template.
Overview ​
User templates can be managed by the system administrator(s) as well as by the service provider and organization account owners. If you need to add several user accounts to the system, the easiest way to do it is with a template. This will spare you the trouble of setting permissions and roles for each an every account. If there are parameters that do not meet your requirements, you may simply edit the template or create a whole new one. To manage user templates, go to Unified Communications in the side menu and click the User Templates icon in the Assets area. The User Templates management page allows you to:
- create a new template
- see a list of all existing user templates
- search for a particular template within the list
- edit templates
- remove unused templates
Add Template ​
To add a template:
- Click on the Add Template icon in the Tools area.
- Name the template.
- Enable the Shared with provider option if you want to share the template with service providers. This will allow service providers to create users based on it.

Enable or Disable Template ​
All user templates are listed in the User Templates table. You may enable or disable a specific template with a simple click on the S (Status) icon, which shows the status of the template: 
for enabled 
for disabled. Once a template is disabled, you can no longer use it to create an account.
Search for a Template ​
The same table shows the Template ID column, which refers to the automatically generated ID of the template. The Users column indicates the number of user accounts created based on this template. To filter existing templates, enter the template name in the text box above the table and click the 
Search button. The system remembers the search criteria when a new search is performed and even after the user logs out.
Remove a Template ​
If you remove a template from the system, the accounts created with it will not be affected. To remove a template:
- Select the template from the table and click the Remove selected link on top of the table.
- Select the Confirm removal checkbox and click OK. To return to the previous page without removing the template, click Cancel.
