Unable to create a team from existing team
Stacey Scarcella
I have tried to reproduce this. I can create a new team and almost immediatly list and use it as a template without problem. How did you create the team? If you create a new team once more, is the problem still valid for that and not showing in the list?
Kind regards Johan
JBergqvist The Team was created through Teams last year and has been used as a template before (that is the purpose of this Team - a template). I will try with a new Team but there still is some discrepancy between what Teams show up. I have created many and only a few show up.
I will try it with a brand new Team.

Hi Again!
Are you an owner of the template team? (I read your post again and saw that you were an owner 😉 )
I think you need to be an owner of that team to make it appear in the list.

I did try to create a new Template Team and it did immediately show up in the list to choose from. I am just wondering why some show and some do not. I have used that Team template in the past without issue.
Thanks for your reply.
