Copying apps from the Template Gallery
When creating an Awesome Table app from scratch, it is sometimes useful (and easier) to use a prefabricated template that can be customized at a later time according to your needs. In awesome-table.com, there are over 20 templates available for you to choose from using a variety of apps for specific use case (tables, card apps, maps...).
1. Click the TEMPLATE GALLERY dropdown menu at the top of the homepage to see all of the available templates.
2. Click a template that you want to use. You will be redirected to the preview page.
3. Click the USE TEMPLATE button.
4. You can now edit your app.
Copying apps from other user
Let us say that you stumbled upon an Awesome Table app from another user and you want to adapt it to for your own use.
1. Replace the Awesome Table app’s URL suffix (or the last word after the forward-slash) “view” with “preview”. For example, https://awesome-table.com/-LouP1Ue2_f1dge-NyU9/view will become https://awesome-table.com/-LouP1Ue2_f1dge-NyU9/preview.
2. Click the USE TEMPLATE button.
3. Click the OPEN COPY button (or wait for a second or two for the app to automatically open).
4. You can now edit your app.

Sorry but I try to do and don't download the template
Hi @Jony.
Were you logged in to your Google / GSuite account when you tried to replicate a view?
And what specific view were you trying to copy?
(Please provide screenshots so we can troubleshoot further.)
Thanks.

Hi there,
There seems to be an issue when wanting to copy a template. I'm trying to copy the People Directory With Sidebar and I keep getting an error message telling me "Awesome Table needs your authorization to copy the template." And this is what I get in the corner:
I'm already signed-in though.
Thanks!
Hi Eleni.
I just tried to replicate the same template and it proceeded as normal.
Could you please try to open the same template using Chrome's Incognito mode (or your default browser's Private browsing mode).
If that doesn't work, please follow sections 2 - 4 of this troubleshooting article.
We'll wait for your reply.

Hi Randy,
It seems to be working now. Probably just an issue on my end. Thanks for the reply!
I have copied and used the Awesome-Table template called "Customer Stories." I can see it in the screenshot above but I can no longer find it in the template gallery and the two uses I have of that template embedded on other websites have stopped working. The images are no longer clickable to take the user to more information. Is there a way for me to fix the existing template or since it has been removed from the gallery, does that mean it no longer works?
Thank you.
Janet
