Template details page
The template details page gives you a complete view of the template and lets you configure it.
This page contains a template preview on the left-hand side and the following configuration tabs on the right-hand side: Details, Variables, Dynamic frames, and Triggers.
This tab contains the system details of the template. To edit these values, in the top-right corner of the tab, click Edit 
.
This tab lets you configure templates for user input. You can define rules and constraints applicable to variables. Start by creating a variable in the Chili editor and then add it to your chosen template. These selected variables appear on the Design tab of the editor, letting you edit their content.
Dynamic frames
The Dynamic frames tab lets you link template image frames to Sitecore Digital Asset Management (DAM) assets and metadata.

On the menu bar, click Publisher > Templates.

On the Templates page, click the template you want to add a dynamic frame to.

On the Triggers tab, you can link template variables and frames to any Sitecore DAM entity and its associated metadata, such as Products or Brands.
If you create a trigger, there must be an existing relationship between the entity definition you use as a trigger and the M.Chili.Publication definition.
