# Create Template from File Upload

`POST /public/v1/templates?upload`

This asynchronous endpoint allows users to create a new template by uploading a file.

The uploaded file is processed in the background to generate the template.
The maximum allowable file size for upload is 100 MB.
Field tags and form fields are not supported yet.

Once the file is uploaded, the processing will happen asynchronously, and users need to check [the status of the template](https://developers.pandadoc.com/reference/template-status) creation.
