Control who has access to templates in App Engine Studio (AES) using the app_template_admin role. App template
admins activate and deactivate templates and grant other users access to share their
templates.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## About this task

An administrator grants the app_template_admin role to users who will manage template
activation, deactivation, and sharing. This role should be granted on non-production
instances where App Engine Studio users author and use templates.

To create apps and work with templates in AES, users must be an admin or in the App Engine
Studio Users group. If they are in the AES User
Limited group, they can only edit existing apps, not create new ones.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllUser AdministrationUsers.
2. Select the user you want to give the app_template_admin role to.
3. On the Roles related list, select Edit.
4. Move app_template_admin from the Collection list to the Roles list.
5. Select Save.
