- Create a dedicated site collection \u2014 eg branding \u2014 to store org assets<\/li>
- Create one or more document libraries in this site collection.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
To create an asset library you must connect to SharePoint Online as Global Admin or SharePoint Admin using the latest version of the SharePoint Online Management Shell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Download and install the latest SharePoint Online Management Shell<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Run PowerShell (as administrator) and login to SharePoint Online with ..<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Connect-SPOService -Url <\/strong>https:\/\/mydomain-admin.sharepoint.com<\/strong><\/a><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
.. where mydomain-admin.sharepoint.com is your tenant admin URL for SharePoint Online (you can confirm this by opening the SharePoint Admin center from the Microsoft 365 admin center)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once connected, run the following ..<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Add-SPOOrgAssetsLibrary -LibraryURL \"https:\/\/mydomain.sharepoint.com\/sites\/OrganisationAssets\/Office Templates\" -OrgAssetType OfficeTemplateLibrary<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
where ..<\/p>\n\n\n\n
-LibraryURL<\/strong> \u2014 location of your document library<\/p>\n\n\n\n
-ThumbnailURL<\/strong> \u2014 location of custom image to replace standard folder image (not used in this example)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
-OrgAssetType<\/strong> \u2014 indicates the type of content and currently supports two types ..<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- OfficeTemplateLibrary<\/em> \u2014 used to specify an asset of type Office Template<\/li>
- ImageDocumentLibrary<\/em> \u2014 used to specify an asset of type image<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
How to use it<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
If you create a new document from an Office client \u2014 Word in the example below \u2014 you should see a new entry that represents your tenant name for your organisation templates \u2014 KONNEXION LTD in my example below. If you select this you will see a folder that represents the document library you have provisioned for template storage \u201cOffice Templates\u201d below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Note, your Office client needs to be logged into your tenant for this to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nFinal word on templates<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
The procedure above provides templates visible to end users in the various Office clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have an additional 2 ways to provide templates to end users when creating Office documents in SharePoint<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Content Types \u2014 you can add a custom template to a content type and add this content type to any document library. This adds an option in the library New menu to create a document of that type \u2014 which will include that template<\/li>
- In modern document libraries the user can manually add templates under the New menu. Useful when the template is unlikely to be used anywhere else<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
