  1. This dropdown menu gives you 4 options by which you can browse templates to find the right fit: By template label, by research field or research problem that the template has been assigned to or by class.

  2. Here, you enter the search term.

  3. These are the search results that you can choose from. If the search results are more than can fit in this space, you will find an option to Load more tempalates at the bottom of the pop-up.

You can now click on the template that you’d like to use. This will add all the properties that are specified in the templates to the contribution or resource you added the template to. Then, you only need to fill out the values of each property and you’re done!
