🆕Group Templates

Overview

Templates allow for consistent and efficient creation of groups across the network. Group Templates can be created by any user with permission to create groups.

Templates let creators predefine tags, categories, permissions, admins, and modules, ensuring standardization. Users can further modify these details when creating new items.
