# Managing Your Shared Templates

Once your template is approved and marked as **Public**, you have full control over its visibility and content from your **My Community Profile** page.

## 1. Controlling Template Visibility

You can change your template's status at any time to control who can see and access it. Click the three-dot menu on your template card, then choose one of the following:

* **Public (Default):** Your template is fully published, searchable, and discoverable by everyone in the Community marketplace.
* **Private:** The template is hidden from the public. Only you can see it on your profile dashboard.
* **Unlisted:** The template is hidden from search results but remains accessible via a direct link. Only people you share the link with can view it.

## 2. Updating Template Content

You can always improve your template's description or update its underlying workflow logic.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Important:** To maintain community quality and security, **any changes** made to a publicly shared template require re-approval.
{% endhint %}

**How it works:**

* **Update Description:** Edit and save the text details, such as the name, category, or description.

* **Update Flow:** Open the Workflow Builder, modify the nodes, and save your changes.

**What happens after an update?** Immediately after you save changes to either the description or the flow, your template's status switches back to **Waiting for review**.

Your template will temporarily leave the public marketplace and re-enter the review queue. It will return to **Public** status only after the Diaflow Admin Team reviews and re-approves your updates.
