synchronizationTemplate resource type

Namespace: microsoft.graph

Provides preconfigured synchronization settings for a particular application. These settings are used by default for any synchronization job that is based on the template. The application developer specifies the template; anyone can retrieve the template to see the default settings, including the synchronization schema.

You can provide multiple templates for an application, and designate a default template. If multiple templates are available for the application you're interested in, seek application-specific guidance to determine which one best meets your needs.
