I have created a new template, but when I got to save it, a little red window pops up saying “template is not locked” - is this referring to making fields mandatory or is there another area where I can “lock” it after I’ve created it? Just trying to make sure my senders in my office can’t change certain things. Thanks in advance!
How to Lock a template

Best answer by David.Schmitz
Typically you would need to close the browser and re-login to the DocuSign UI and make these changes to the Template again because there is a good likelihood they did not save.
Regarding the Template protection, the bet option is to set a password on the Template under the “Advanced Options” of the Template while in Edit mode. This means any other DocuSign Users with Template edit permissions would need the Template password “if” they tried to edit the Template you own.
