Search: Search for Templates by name or by any of the text content in the Template. Text content includes fields like body, title, subtitle, header text, or friendly name.
Filter: Filter Templates by their language, date created, content type, or channel eligibility status.
To search via the UI, input the parameters that you would like to search or filter by and hit the Apply Search button to get a matching subset of Templates. Multiple search and filter parameters can all be utilized at once to get to a more specific set of Templates. To access the UI, go to the Twilio Console and navigate to Messaging -> Content Tempalte Builder.
Search is also available via the API for programmatic use cases.
