PunitS.63931 (Customer) asked a question.
As I understand that I can use *parse to include Velocity template file from another file and that file should reside in TEMPLATE_ROOT directory.
How can I add my VTL file to Okta and allow to use in the email templates for customization.

Hello Punit Singhi,
Thanks for posting.
The #include script element allows the template designer to import a local file, which is then inserted into the location where the #include directive is defined. The contents of the file are not rendered through the template engine. For security reasons, the file to be included may only be under TEMPLATE_ROOT.
Like the #include directive, #parse can take a variable rather than a template. Any templates to which #parse refers must be included under TEMPLATE_ROOT. Unlike the #include directive, #parse will only take a single argument.
