Overview

Besides the option to create a space using the space template, you can also apply the space template to an existing space. In this case, new space elements, such as cards or custom fields, are added to existing space elements.

The current space components will not be removed.

Changes to the existing space after applying the space template may be additional:

Existing elements will not disappear or be undermined. Cards currently in the space will remain, as will card statuses, space users, or space views. This may result in card statuses that are similar in function. We recommend manually adjusting the number of card statuses and moving cards using bulk actions.

Applying space templates to existing spaces

  3. Select the space template.
  4. Set the start and the end date for the space (optional).
