   • Everyone: The template will be visible by all users of the application. Only managers can share templates with everyone.
   • Specific users: Allows you to select the users who will be able to see the template. Related permissions: Includes the word "Shared" in his name. For example, viewSharedTemplates, editSharedTemplates, deleteSharedTemplates.

     Important! Keep in mind that although a user can share a template with another user, this user must have the permissions to view, edit, delete, etc. required for each action. For example, if you share the template with two users with different roles: Basic User and Editor. The basic user could only have access to use the templates to create his form, while the Editor user could access the Form Builder to update the template.
