# Look up a library template

`GET /v1/messaging/whatsapp/template-library`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://apihub.co.il`
- URL: `https://apihub.co.il/v1/messaging/whatsapp/template-library`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Look up a single pre-approved Template Library template by its exact name, to
introspect its structure before importing it. Most importantly it returns the
template's `buttons`: a library template with `URL` / `PHONE_NUMBER` buttons
must be created with a matching `library_template_button_inputs` array (see
Create Template), or Meta rejects it. Use this to discover which inputs to collect.
