# Role Templates

This page lists the GDAP role templates you have created. A template is a named set of role mappings, and it is what you select when generating an invite or onboarding a tenant, so that every relationship is built with a consistent set of permissions.

If this is your first time setting up CIPP, the page prompts you to create the **CIPP Defaults** template, which contains the 15 roles included on the [Recommended Roles](/setup/maintaining-cipp/recommended-roles.md) page. The prompt appears whenever no template named `CIPP Defaults` exists, so it will return if you delete or rename that template.

Use the **Add Template** button to create a new template via [Add Template](/user-documentation/tenant/gdap-management/role-templates/add.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.cipp.app/user-documentation/tenant/gdap-management/role-templates.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
