# Template Task
The Template Task generates text from a template and task inputs. Templates can be used to prepare data for a number of tasks including generating large
language model (LLM) prompts.
## Example
The following shows a simple example using this task as part of a workflow.
```python
from txtai.workflow import TemplateTask, Workflow
workflow = Workflow([TemplateTask(template="This is a {text} task")])
workflow([{"text": "template"}])
```
## Configuration-driven example
This task can also be created with workflow configuration.
```yaml
workflow:
tasks:
- task: template
template: This is a {text} task
```
