# Template Import
|
|
|
|
This section will describe **Template Import** in Cacti.
|
|
|
|
Template Import files are XML files used to add support for more graph types and
|
|
different devices that can be shared with others. These template files can
|
|
either be custom made or you could download them from the community on the cacti
|
|
forums.
|
|
|
|
Once you have downloaded the graph/device template you are looking for you will
|
|
need to import the template into the cacti system. To import a device/graph
|
|
template go to `Console > Import/Export > Import Templates` you will now see
|
|
the below page
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
> **Important note**: When importing the template be sure to match the data source
|
|
> profile with your preferred **Data Source Profile**.
|
|
|
|
First you must click on **Select File** and browse to where the XML file is
|
|
located on your computer. Cacti will default to preview the import to check for
|
|
any issues. If none are found, you can select the same file and then untick the
|
|
preview option to import after which the template should be available.
|
|
|
|
The `Remove Orphans` option should only be used if you have Templates that have become
|
|
damaged and the best way to correct them is to start over. This option will
|
|
remove any **Graph Items** from any **Graph** that do not appear in the **Graph Template**
|
|
to be imported. Use this option with care.
