Notion comes with a rich library of built-in templates. However, creating a custom template helps you duplicate multiple content and blocks with a single click. Thereby increasing your project’s efficiency and improving the workflow.
Notion allows you to create a custom template with the help of the template button. In this guide, we will explain how to create a template in Notion.

Create the content to convert it into a template. - Once you have your template put together, click on a blank line. Add the template button by left-clicking on the + symbol.
Click on the Plus icon. - Scroll down and click on Template button. Alternatively, you can add the template button by typing “/template” and pressing Enter.
Click on the Template button option. - You will be prompted with the “Configure template button” box.
