`POST /template/{id}/share`

Resource: **Template** · API: **Templates**

## Path parameters

- **`id`** _(string, required)_
  Template id (`tpl_…`).

## Request body

- **`grantee_type`** _(string)_
  `user` and `team` grants target one `grantee_id`; `org` applies to every member of the organization and takes no id.
  Allowed: `user`, `team`, `org`
- **`grantee_id`** _(string,null)_
  User id (`usr_…`) or team id (`team_…`). Omit or send null for `grantee_type: "org"`.
- **`level`** _(string)_
  Same ladder for every shareable resource, low to high. `view` — see it exists, read its metadata/config; cannot exercise it. `use` — `view` + exercise it, resource-specific: run tools through a connection; execute a toolbox's tools through its bound connections (this DELEGATES — the caller runs through each entry's pinning editor's own authority, not necessarily their own); stamp a new toolbox by copying a template's entries; create connections from a connector. `edit` — `use` + change its settings, entries and its own grants.
  Allowed: `view`, `use`, `edit`

## Response body

- **`id`** _(string)_
  ACL entry id — the `:aclId` a `DELETE .../share/{aclId}` call takes.
- **`resource_type`** _(string)_
  Allowed: `connection`, `toolbox`, `template`, `connector`
- **`resource_id`** _(string)_
  The shared resource's id (a connector's slug, for that type).
- **`grantee_type`** _(string)_
  `user` and `team` grants target one `grantee_id`; `org` applies to every member of the organization and takes no id.
  Allowed: `user`, `team`, `org`
- **`grantee_id`** _(string,null)_
  User id (`usr_…`) or team id (`team_…`). Null for a `grantee_type: "org"` grant.
- **`level`** _(string)_
  Same ladder for every shareable resource, low to high. `view` — see it exists, read its metadata/config; cannot exercise it. `use` — `view` + exercise it, resource-specific: run tools through a connection; execute a toolbox's tools through its bound connections (this DELEGATES — the caller runs through each entry's pinning editor's own authority, not necessarily their own); stamp a new toolbox by copying a template's entries; create connections from a connector. `edit` — `use` + change its settings, entries and its own grants.
  Allowed: `view`, `use`, `edit`
