This doc explains how to share templates with other organizations.

Requirements

Share a template
You can share Sigma templates with other organizations. When you share a template, no actual data is shared with the recipient organization.
This functionality is useful for customers who control multiple Sigma orgs and to create new Sigma orgs for their customers, allowing you to share templates with your customers. When the recipient org receives your template, they can select tables or datasets to use in their connection. When a workbook is created from the shared template, it will use those data sources.
