Project Templates

Any given project in REDCap may be designated by an Administrator as a project template. Once designated as a template, that project will become available as an option when creating a new project, in which a user may choose that project as a template from which to start when creating their new project. When creating a new project using a template, all of the template's data collection instruments, fields, surveys, and general project settings will be added to the new project at the point of creation. Below are some options for managing all the templates available, including adding, editing, or removing a project as a template.
