Administrators can create project kits.

When a user creates a new project, the project is empty until templates are added via the Content Automation Template Library. However, it can sometimes be difficult for authors to know which templates they should add or where they belong in the Template Library.

This is where Project Kits come in. Admins can create kits for their users by choosing a collection of documents that will automatically appear inside the project kit. For example, if an administrator creates a Social Media kit for their authors, the project may contain social- media related templates such as Facebook and Instagram tiles. This enables users to start creating documents sooner.

What if the project kit contains templates that are not available to a team?

If a team has access to a Project Kit but does not have access to the templates inside it, they will only see the templates they have access to.
