Project Templates

Last modified: 09 October 2024

When you create a new project in YouTrack, you select a template that is used to configure the project. You can choose one of the templates that are predefined in YouTrack or create a project from a custom template.

To access the list of project templates, click the Projects link in the application header, then click the New Project button.

The Create Project button in the application header.

The settings for predefined project templates are pre-configured for different types of projects. This means that you can create a project and start working with it right away. After you create the project, you can modify the pre-configured settings at any time to match the actual workflow and process for your team.

  • The configurations for predefined templates are read-only and cannot be changed from their default settings.

  • The configuration for a custom project template can be changed at any time. Any project that is created using the custom project template uses the settings that are stored in the source project at the time the new project is created. Modifications to the project that you use as a custom template are not replicated to projects that have already been created from the template. Changes to the configuration of the source project are only applied to projects that are created from the template after the changes are applied.

Step one in the project setup assistant.

YouTrack provides the following predefined project templates:

Any project that has been marked as a custom project template is also available for new projects on the Create Project page. For more information, see Custom Project Templates.
