# Workflow templates

--8<-- "_snippets/embed-license.md"

n8n provides a library of workflow templates. When embedding n8n, you can:

* Continue to use n8n's workflow templates library (this is the default behavior)
* Disable workflow templates
* Create your own workflow templates library

## Disable workflow templates

In your environment variables, set `N8N_TEMPLATES_ENABLED` to false.

## Use your own workflow templates library

In your environment variables, set `N8N_TEMPLATES_HOST` to the base URL of your API.

Your API must provide the same endpoints and data structure as n8n's.

The endpoints are:

| Method | Path |
| ------ | ---- |
| GET | /templates/workflows/`<id>` |
| GET | /templates/workflows |
| GET | /templates/collections/`<id>` |
| GET | /templates/collections | 
| GET | /templates/categories |
| GET | /health |

To learn about the data structure, try out n8n's API endpoints:

[https://api.n8n.io/templates/categories](https://api.n8n.io/templates/categories){:target=_blank .external-link}  
[https://api.n8n.io/templates/collections](https://api.n8n.io/templates/collections){:target=_blank .external-link}  
[https://api.n8n.io/templates/workflows](https://api.n8n.io/templates/workflows){:target=_blank .external-link}  
[https://api.n8n.io/health](https://api.n8n.io/health){:target=_blank .external-link}
