A table will be present on the left side on the page of step 1 ,the information will represent the bot’s construction in a brief manner.
The steps represent the number of nodes that are used in achieving the required task of the bot while the custom fields represent the number of variables created by users especially for this bot . The number of sub flows represents the number of flows that will be installed in the bot . Keywords represent the number of special keywords used in the bot.
Step 2
The second step is to make sure to choose the right bot that the template bot will be used in if there is no bot to be used in, then the system will ask the user to create a new bot first in order to install a bot template.
Users can search for specific bots that they have already created on their workspace and choose one of the bot that the template bot will be used in. Users should make sure that the correct bot is selected before advancing to the third step.

Step 2
The second step in the process of bot template creation is the selection of the type of bot that is to be made into a template.

The custom image can also be uploaded to give the template a more customized feel by the users.
The Auto update feature allows users to update the template while also updating the template for the users that are using the template.
Lastly, the option of a publishable template allows the users to give access to other users to update and publish this template as their own versions.
The editable option allows the users to give access to edit the template flows to their own use but if the template edit option is not turned on then the template will not be editable for users.

After clicking the edit button a whole page with customizable information will be displayed , here the user can fully customize the details of the template.
The type of links can be changed from one time link to a permanent link while also providing options for private and public links .
Default settings is the option of permanent shared link allowing users to use the template link any time
The Public link allows all users to access the template but only if the template is approved and is listed on Rapidbott template store.
One time link allows users to create a one time link it can be used for private or public use but it secures the template from being opened multiple times from a single link.
Private link allows users to create a link only to be used within the workspace , The link will not work if the same workspace is not logged in .
Price of the templates can also be changed from the option of template price. (Default is free)
Details about the templates can be updated while the guidelines allow the users to explain behaviors and details to install about the template.

Installing Publishable template
When installing a publishable only template the system will inform the user about the template being publishable only and the user would not be able to view or edit the template flows.
After installing the template the flows will not open because the flow was only publishable
Editable Template
The editable only template at the time of installing will notify the user about the behavior of the template .
The users can only see the folder and the number of flows installed in the bot but cannot take a look at what is inside the folders similar to the situation with publishable only templates.
Viewable only templates
At the time of installing a viewable only template the system will inform users about the conditions and the restrictions of a viewable only template
A viewable-only template will open and users can take a look at the flows but cannot edit or publish it due to the restriction of the template being viewable only.
