Creating your first Template

This is where everything from What are Sections?, Types of Sections, Creating your first Section, and What are Templates? comes together.

You have already done most of the work by creating your Sales Call Pain Point Analysis Section. Now you need to:

  1. Create a Template that includes that Section (and any others you want).

  2. Add a clear Purpose / Category and Description so Jamy assigns the Template accurately — as explained in What are Templates?.

  3. Save and assign it to meetings.


Before you begin

  • Your Sales Call Pain Point Analysis Section should already exist (see Creating your first Section).

  • Creating Templates requires the Templates feature (Pro new, Premium, Global Business, or the Custom Templates add-on).


Step 1 — Open the Templates page

  1. In the sidebar, go to Notes & MeetingsTemplates (/report-creator).

  2. Select Create Template (top right, or the Create New Template card).

You will enter the Create Template editor — a two-step wizard: Basics and Content.


Step 2 — Fill in the Basics

On Step 1 of 2 (Basics), configure the following fields.

Template Name

Choose a name Jamy can match against meeting titles. For this example, use something like:

Sales Call Analysis

Jamy can match Template names to meeting names automatically. See What are Templates? for how that works.

Purpose / Category (required)

A short summary of when this Template applies. For example:

Sales calls with leads and prospects — discovery and qualification

This field is required and helps Jamy understand the Template’s intent.

Description (optional)

Add more detail so Jamy can match the Template to meeting content when the name alone is not enough. For this tutorial, use:

This Template is meant to be used in sales calls between one or more sales people from our team and representatives from a potential customer. In the call we want to understand the lead's or prospect's main pain points, requirements and necessities. In this type of call we also want to understand whether they have tried to solve their problem already, which tools they have used, and what results they have gotten. We also want to confirm that the lead already has an approved budget to implement a solution, as well as the priority and timeline to do it. This Template should be used solely for sales meetings or calls that fit this description.

The more specific your Purpose / Category and Description, the better Jamy performs automatic Template selection.

Who can view this template?

Choose who can see the Template:

Option

Meaning

Only me

Private to you

Everyone

Visible to your whole organisation

For this tutorial, Only me is fine.

Who can edit this template?

Choose who can modify the Template:

Option

Meaning

Only me

You are the only editor

Anyone in my organisation

All team members can edit

Specific people

Choose individual colleagues

For this tutorial, leave it as Only me — you do not need to add other Editors.

Select Next to continue to the Content step.


Step 3 — Configure the Content

On Step 2 of 2 (Content), you define what appears in the Meeting Report.

Include Topics & Tasks

Enable the Include Topics & Tasks toggle if you want Jamy to automatically extract discussion topics and action items.

For this sales Template, turn it on.

Custom Sections

Sections are the building blocks of a Template. Each Section you add becomes part of the report generated for meetings that use this Template.

Add Summary

  1. Select Add Section.

  2. In the Add Section modal, open My Sections or Public Library.

  3. Search for Summary.

  4. Select Add.

Add Sales Call Pain Point Analysis

  1. Select Add Section again.

  2. Open the My Sections tab.

  3. Find Sales Call Pain Point Analysis (the Section you created earlier).

  4. Select Add.

Your Sections appear in a list. Use the up and down arrows to change their order, or the delete icon to remove one.

You can also select Create New to build a Section inline without leaving the Template editor.

When you are finished, your Template should include:

  1. Summary

  2. Sales Call Pain Point Analysis

  3. Topics & Tasks (via the toggle)


Step 4 — Create the Template

Select Create Template.

Jamy saves the Template and returns you to the Templates list. You will see a success message confirming it was created.

Your new Template card shows the Template name, description, and Sections (2) (plus Topics & Tasks when enabled).


Step 5 — Assign the Template to a meeting

You can assign the Template manually, or let Jamy select it automatically.

Manual assignment (Calendar)

  1. Go to Calendar.

  2. Open a future sales meeting with Process meeting enabled.

  3. In the meeting detail panel, choose Sales Call Analysis from the Template dropdown.

  4. Jamy confirms: Template has been assigned.

The meeting will be processed using your Template when Jamy generates the report.

Other ways to assign

  • RecordingsCreate Report — select the Template when uploading or linking a recording.

  • Calls — choose the Template from the Select a Template panel before or during a call.

Automatic assignment

Even if you do not assign the Template manually, Jamy may still choose it when:

  • The meeting name contains a match with the Template name (for example, Sales), or

  • The meeting content matches your Template’s Purpose / Category and Description.

See What are Templates? for the full selection order.


What you have built

You now have a complete sales Template that:

  • Generates a Summary of the call

  • Runs your Sales Call Pain Point Analysis Section for pain points, budget, and quotes

  • Extracts Topics & Tasks automatically

  • Is discoverable by Jamy for sales meetings via its name and description


Tips

  • Name Templates clearly — include keywords like Sales, Interview, or Stand-up that appear in your calendar event titles.

  • Write detailed descriptions — they are your main tool for automatic matching when names do not align.

  • Test Sections first — validate each Section with Testing Sections before relying on the Template in live meetings.

  • Reorder Sections — put the most important output first in the report.
