.. Notes

Notes
-----

.. note::
   - Due to a bug in the foreman_templates plugin, this module won't report ``changed=true`` when the only change is the Organization/Location association of the imported templates. Please see https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/29534 for details.
   - Default values for all module options can be set using :ref:`theforeman.foreman.setting <ansible_collections.theforeman.foreman.setting_module>` for TemplateSync category or on the settings page in WebUI.
