To switch the template type between a Workflow/Timeline, you'll need to clone the data from the original template & create a new version with the desired template type (it may sound technical, but it's pretty simple!).

Note: There is currently no direct way to switch between the template types.

Steps:

  1. Navigate to the folder where the template was originally created (e.g either in the Home Folder/Team Folder)

  2. Click on the Template Library tab

    1. Note: If the template was created in a Team Folder, click Templates tab

  3. Select the template checkbox

  4. Click Edit Template

  5. In the bottom-left, click Show Raw Code

  6. Select all of the text, right-click and click 'Copy' (Note: It is important to copy all of the text, and do not change any of it. If you do, it won't work)

  7. Click the 'X' in the top-right, to close the form builder

  8. Staying within the Templates section, click Add Template (Note: you might need to un-select the original template to see this field)

  9. Click on Build Your Own, enter the details of your new template & select Next

  10. In the form builder, click Show Raw Code

  11. Remove any text that's already in there & paste the code you copied

  12. Click Hide Raw Code to see all of the fields

  13. Click Save when you're done
