If you don't have too many document templates, you'll be able to see all of them on the first page. Once you start building up a library of document templates, use the search function to quickly find the exact template you need instead of flipping through your pages.

In this article, we'll cover:

Getting started

Document templates can be found by searching for a document's:

  • Name: The name of your document template.
  • File name: The name of the PDF or .docx file.
  • EID : A unique 20 character ID that can be found in the API page of a document template.

Here are a few things you should keep in mind before you start searching for your document templates:

  • All search categories support full or partial searches

    • If you’re looking for a document template named Template sample, you can search for:
      • “Template”, “sample”, “Tem”, “Template s”, etc.
    • The more precise your search is, the narrower your search results become.
  • Only published template names and file names are supported

    • If you renamed a template or a file and saved your changes as a draft, the updated names will not be searchable until you’ve published the draft.
    • To learn more about how to publish a template draft please see this article.
  • Searches will automatically redirect you

    • Once you've entered a search term, you will be automatically be redirected to the first page of matching results
    • Clear your search and return to the view of all document templates by deleting the contents of your search bar.
