This is a premium feature of the editor we are using (CKEditor) and we benefit from it thanks to an written agreement with the team. See Premium features for more information.

Text Snippets are closely related to Templates, but instead of defining the content of an entire note, text snippets are pieces of formatted text that can easily be inserted in a text note.

## Creating a text snippet

In the Note Tree:

1. Right click a note where to place the text snippet.
2. Select Insert child note.
3. Select Text snippet.

Afterwards, simply type in the content of the note the desired text. The text can be formatted in the same manner as a normal text note.

The title of the note will become the title of the template. Optionally, a description can be added in the Promoted Attributes section.

## Inserting a snippet

Once a snippet is created, there are two options to insert it:

1. From the Formatting toolbar, by looking for the button.
2. Using Slash Commands:
   1. To look for a specific template, start typing the name of the template (its title).
   2. To look for all the templates, type `template`.

A newly created snippet doesn't appear? Generally it takes up to a few seconds to refresh the list of templates once you make a change.

If this doesn't happen, reload the application and report the issueto us.

## Limitations

- Whenever a snippet is created, deleted or its title/description are modified, all the open text notes will need to be refreshed. This causes a slight flash for usually under a second, but it can cause some discomfort.
- Unlike Templates, the snippets cannot be limited to a particular workspace.
