Share and accept cross-org workbook templates
Cross-org sharing allows you to share and accept workbook templates across different Sigma organizations. When the receiving organization accepts a shared template, they must choose their own data source to populate the template, ensuring no data from the sharing organization is disclosed.
This document explains how to share and accept a workbook template across organizations.
User requirements
To share or accept a workbook template through cross-org sharing, you must be assigned the Admin account type.

Accept a template shared with your organization

In the Swap Data Sources Overview modal, Sigma identifies connections and data sources that closely match the data used in the original template. Choose from these matches to automatically swap the data, or manually select and match individual data source columns.
