The nature of a template is to provide a good solution for that specific task, but it might not have the exact functionality that everyone needs and could require adjustment to achieve what others might be looking for. It is a set of templates that use the admin connectors in combination with other connectors and formulas to achieve some specified goal. Templates and Customization: The CoE Starter Kit falls into this category. The use of the extensions (and templates below) represents a feedback loop, that we use to help prioritize our out of the box product admin features. For example, provisioning a new Environment can be automated using the admin connectors. Please refer to the Admin connectors blogs for details. These have been exposed through the connectors library to give users the ability to create custom solutions to execute administrative or governance related tasks.
