### <a href="#optionalPaths" name="optionalPaths" class="anchor"> The `optionalPaths` property</a>

Before applying a Template, tooling must inspect the `optionalPaths` property of a Template and prompt the user on whether each file or folder should be included in the resulting output workspace folder. A path is relative to the root of the Template source directory.

- For a single file, provide the full relative path (without any leading or trailing path delimiters).
- For a directory, provide the full relative path with a trailing slash and asterisk (`/*`) appended to the path. The directory and its children will be recursively ignored.

Examples are shown below:

```jsonc
{
"id": "cpp",
"version": "3.0.0",
"name": "C++",
"description": "Develop C++ applications",
"optionalPaths": [
"GETTING-STARTED.md", // Single file
"example-project-1/MyProject.csproj", // Single file in nested directory
".github/*" // Entire recursive contents of directory
]
}
```

The `id` format (`<oci-registry>/<namespace>/<template>[:<semantic-version>]`) dictates how a [supporting tool](/supporting) will locate and download a given Template from an OCI registry. For example:
