# **Previewing Templates**

The template preview feature in the uAuditor Public Template Library allows users to review a template’s structure before importing it into their workspace. This helps ensure the template matches operational needs and inspection requirements.

Previewing templates improves selection accuracy and reduces unnecessary customization later.

## **Why Preview Templates Before Importing**

Previewing templates helps organizations:

- understand template structure before use
- verify relevance to operational workflows
- review question types and response formats
- confirm evidence requirements 📷
- evaluate scoring logic if available
- reduce editing time after importing

It ensures templates align with inspection objectives from the start.

## **What You Can See in Template Preview Mode**

When opening a template preview, users can review:

- template title and description
- inspection sections and grouping
- question sequence and structure
- response types (Yes/No, multiple choice, text, media, etc.)
- required fields and evidence requirements
- action-trigger conditions (if configured)

This provides a complete overview before copying the template.

## **How to Preview a Template**

To preview a template from the Public Template Library:

1. Open the Templates module
2. Navigate to Public Template Library
3. Browse or search for a template

This supports faster and more confident template selection.
