Configure Template Editor
Template List
The left-hand pane of the editor displays a tree view of all folder templates. In a new installation of CAM, by default the following templates are available:
Corporate
Government Contracts
Legislative
Litigation
Matter-Init
Patent Prosecution and Counseling
Personal Workspace
Regulatory
Tax and Wealth Planning
Trademark, Copyright & Licensing
Click the > button next to the template to expand and view the folders. Options for Templates and Folders can be configured in the right-hand side pane.
Note: For iManage users adding metadata to templates, note that iManage requires userid’s be encased in %%. Like %alexey.marcus%
You can also use %% around SessionUserEmail like %Test@email.com%.
Configuring Template/Folder Availability
Template Options
Select the template from the Template Tree in the left pane. The Template availability options are displayed in the right pane.
Field Name | Description |
---|
Field Name | Description |
---|---|
Default | Sets whether the template is default or not in the system. You can only have one default. The default template will have a green checkbox button next to it in other pages. |
Basic | Enter a custom name for the template. Select the applicable external system from the Select System drop-down. This will ensure all the metadata from the selected external system is available to apply to the folders within the template. |
Availability | Specifies from which CAM dialogs the template will be available for selection
|
Metadata Filters | Based on the filters specified here, the template will be available for selection in the Manage Folder dialog when the metadata of the selected workspace or folder matches the value added here.
For iManage users adding metadata, note that iManage requires userid’s be encased in %%. Like %alexey.marcus% You can also use %% around SessionUserEmail like %Test@email.com%. |
Folder Options
Field Name | Description |
---|
Field Name | Description |
---|---|
Basic | Enter a custom name for the folder.
|
Folder Type | Select the Folder type to be added under the Template. Read here for more details. Note: The folder types are filtered based on the system the template is associated to. |
Show as | Specifies the behavior of the check box that precedes a folder in the Manage Folder dialog. Additionally, folders marked as Required cannot be deleted by users.
Consider the following scenarios:
To manually change the availability of a folder already created:
Notes:
|
Prefix/Suffix | Specifies how users can customize the name of the folder.
|
Default Security | Sets the default security for the folders on a template, to Public, View or Private. For iManage, this option will display by default. This is available for NetDocuments, iManage and Office365. This option is available in CSV too. Note: When default security of folders/subfolder which has ACL attached, is changed from 'Public, Private, or View' to Inherit in the existing Template and applied to created folders, security is changed to Private with no change to attached ACL. |
Security | Assign security to the folder to locks down the folder to specific users or groups. If access to a folder is denied here to a user/group, they cannot view the folder in the workspace.
Note: Template editor provides an option to specify external user email.
Dynamic SecuritySecurity can be set by using comma separated variables of the metadata to pull from to set security. For example @custom7@, workspace.@custom1@, or @groupid@ can be used to pull the object to apply the security to the workspace, folder, or document. Note: Irrespective of the Role assigned to the user here, access to the NetDocuments cabinet is granted only if the user has default access to the cabinet, where the template is applied to create a workspace. |
Order | Displays the order of which to set. This order is used by default. When reapplying a template that tabs reordering will not be carried over at this time for existing tabs/channels. |
Metadata | Folders defined in a template can be assigned metadata. The values of the folder metadata can be defined using variables that are replaced with the workspace's metadata upon creation of the folder. (For e.g. for folder description, CAM uses the metadata values of ClientId and MatterId as @ClientId@@MatterId@). The metadata value at run time is replaced with the actual workspace value. Metadata added to search folders are treated as search parameters. Note: When creating a workspace with a template having folders/sub-folders with metadata set as owner & value as @SessionUser@, the owner will be the user used to log in to CAM. If owner Metadata is not set on the folder with the placeholder @SessionUser@, the owner will be the user for which a token has been generated in CAM's external system configuration for the iManage server.
If a metadata mapping was created with “Key only” multivalues on the metadata will be disabled, and only one key can be used. To use multivalues, select “Key and Description”. Read about Metadata Mapping here. Metadata Use Cases
Note: The metadata available for selection here is determined by the external system selected for the template. iManage requires userid’s be encased in %%. Like %alexey.marcus% |
Availability | Specifies the folders levels at which the folder can be created.
Info: If On Demand folder creation is selected, and Show as None is selected and a Prefix and/or Suffix is selected, the folder name will not be edited!

Upload Template
The Upload Templates functionality allows firms that configured templates in Milan to upload the Milan folderTemplate.config xml file into CAM to recreate the templates in CAM. This way firms don't need to manually recreate all their Milan templates.
Once the upload is complete, the user should review the metadata on each folder to make sure the metadata is correct. They can also edit the foldertemplate.config file before uploading to remove any unnecessary folder level metadata such as @clientid@ and @matterid@.
Click the Upload Template button in the top right corner of the page.
Browse and select the template.
The new template is added and displayed in the left-hand pane.
Mapping Templates for Content Mover (ETL)
