Hello all,
I created a template that retrieves files from a repository folder and combines them based on a sample file.
The idea is to have my peers use the template but I find that everytime they open it they are being asked to pick the sample files:
Is there anyway to bypass this menu, since the sample files can be any?
Thanks!

@Anonymous why not remove these parameters, afaik, if there are parameters, template always ask for the value.
