Use an existing application as a starting point to build a custom template in App Engine Studio (AES). Existing data,
experience, logic and automation, and security roles from the application are automatically
added to the custom template.

## Antes de Iniciar

Role required: admin, app_template_author

## Procedimento

1. Navigate to AllApp EngineApp Engine Studio.
2. From the Template page, select Create new template.
3. Select Existing app, and then select Continue.
4. On the app selection screen, select an existing application for the custom template creation, and then select Continue.  
   The following outcomes are possible.  
   * All items are supported: The custom template is created. All the objects are available in the custom template and in apps created from the custom template.
   * Some items aren't supported: You can continue to create the template but a few items are not available in the custom template. There's no impact on the custom template or the apps created from the template.
   * Some items are denied: You encounter an error message and cannot continue further until the errors are fixed. The author must change the app, if it was created from an existing app or the template, if it was created from scratch.

5. Enter a name and description for the custom template.
6. Accept or change the application's logo.
   * If the existing application has a logo in SVG format, the same logo is applied to the custom template.
   * If there's no logo or the logo is in a format other than SVG, upload an SVG logo for the custom template by either dragging the image to the Browse or drag an SVG image field or selecting the field, selecting the image from your file directory, and selecting Open.
