There may be value in re-using an existing Stack for another project, to save the effort of re-creating the Stack from scratch. Stack Templates allow the AppBoard administrator to save all of the Boards, Widgets, and settings for a Stack to an external XML file so that they can be imported into another project.

== To Create a Stack Template ==

# Click "Stacks & Boards" in the left side tool palette.
# For a Stack in the Stacks data grid, click the "Create Template" button. You can also click the floppy disk icon next to the stack you wish to use.
# In the "New Template Name" box, enter the name to create for the template.
# Click the "Create Template" button.

== To Deploy a Stack Template ==

# Click on "Add Stack" to create a new stack using the template.
# Name the stack.
# Select from the pulldown list the template you wish to use.
