Now, when creating and sharing a Template has become a big deal among experienced bot builders, we are happy to introduce the way to protect your intellectual property — meet Protected Template!
How it works
By protecting your Template, you make sure that the user that installs it on their account cannot edit it or share it with someone else. Or both — it’s up to you to decide on how private you want your content to be!
Another feature that makes you feel total control over your setups is being able to see the list of accounts whose admins have ever installed your Template — how cool is that?

Easy, isn’t it? No more worries about your knowledge gathered through years being stolen!
