Benchling Template Collection API is one of 203 APIs that [Benchling](https://apis.io/providers/benchling/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.

The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, an API reference, authentication docs, rate-limit docs, and a changelog.

A container that organizes related templates, subtemplates, and other template-like items. Template Collections provide a way to group and manage reusable content that teams use to create standardized entries. Each collection has an owner (typically an Organization or Team) and can be shared with others through access controls (see `Collaboration`). Collections can contain `EntryTemplate`s for creating new entries, `EntrySubtemplate`s for inserting content, form definitions, procedures, and analysis templates. In the Benchling UI, these appear in the "Template Collections" section.
