# Share Recipes and Templates

Share recipes and templates within a workspace. Useful, if you're duplicating boards or using board templates (e.g. single project templates).

You can easily share automation recipes between boards. This feature is included in all our paid plans (from Standard).

{% hint style="warning" %}
This option is only available for Board-Level templates. Item-Level templates can’t be shared across boards and must be uploaded separately to each one.
{% endhint %}

## How to share recipes?

If you define a new action/automation, you'll find the option to 'share with workspace' under ‘advanced settings':

All shared recipes will be automatically available in all other boards of the same workspace.&#x20;

Shared recipes are highlighted with a small workspace icon in the list of all 'Templates' under 'More':&#x20;

## Share existing recipes

You can also share an existing recipe:

1. In the DocExport Board view, select the template you want to share
2. Click on 'Actions/Automations'
3. Select 'Share with Workspace' (see first screenshot)

The shared recipe will instantly appear in all other boards of your workspace.

## I can't see my template

Only the recipe will be shared if you share a recipe with other boards. The connected template stays in the original board and will be pulled from there.&#x20;

If you want to update a template, you can simply replace/edit the docx template in your original board.
