Use Case

Create custom templates with specific seed data:

1. Create environment from base template
2. Make API calls to add/modify data
3. Save as new template
4. Use new template for tests

# 1. Start with base template
env = client.init_env(
    templateService="slack",
    templateName="slack_default",
    impersonateUserId="U01AGENBOT9"
)

# 2. Add custom data
import requests
requests.post(f"{env.environmentUrl}/conversations.create", json={
    "name": "my-custom-channel"
})

# 3. Save as template
template = client.create_template_from_environment(
    environmentId=env.environmentId,
    service="slack",
    name="my_workspace",
    description="Workspace with custom channel",
    visibility="private"
)

# 4. Use in future tests
env2 = client.init_env(
    templateService="slack",
    templateName="my_workspace",
    impersonateUserId="U01AGENBOT9"
)
