Templates
A template captures hardware, software, license settings, and general input files, so launching a familiar setup skips the whole configuration flow. Templates work for both workstations and jobs.
Launch from a template
Templates appear below the create section, each showing its name, software, and hardware. Select Create from Template, or search if you have many.
The gallery is sorted by most recently used. View All Templates shows the full set.
Save a workstation as a template
From the workstation, open the Save dropdown and choose Save as Template. Give it a name and a short description.
Before saving, make sure the hardware configuration is set, coretype, cores, walltime. For templates you'll also use for jobs, include at least one software selection.
To build a template from an existing workstation without disturbing it: duplicate the workstation, rename the copy, then save that as a template.
Manage templates
Hover the top right of a template card for its actions: pin, edit, archive:
A template shared with you can be launched but not modified. To change it, duplicate a workstation created from it and save your own template.
Admin restrictions
Workspace admins can restrict who may create templates, or require that users launch workstations only from approved templates. If you can't create one. That's likely why. See Administration.
