# GET /templates/{TemplateId}

`GET /templates/{TemplateId}`

Returns the template information for a specific object type.

A template is a predefined ProfileObjectType, such as “Salesforce-Account” or “Salesforce-Contact.” When a user sends a ProfileObject, using the PutProfileObject API, with an ObjectTypeName that matches one of the TemplateIds, it uses the mappings from the template.

## Path parameters
