+An ansible-playbook template can be one of the following types:
+
+* [Task](#task)
+* [Build](#build)
+* [Deploy](#deploy)
+
+### Task
+
+Just runs specified playbooks with specified parameters.
+
+### Build
+
+This type of template should be used to create [artifacts](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artifact\_\(software\_development\)). The start version of the artifact can be specified in a template parameter. Each run increments the artifact version.
+
+![](<../../.gitbook/assets/template\_new\_build\_ipad (1).png>)
+
+Semaphore doesn't support artifacts out-of-box, it only provides task versioning. You should implement the artifact creation yourself. Read the article [CI/CD](../../administration-guide/cicd.md) to know how to do this.
+
+### Deploy
+
+This type of template should be used to deploy artifacts to the destination servers. Each `deploy` template is associated with a `build` template.
+
+![](../../.gitbook/assets/template\_new\_deploy\_ipad.png)
+
+This allows you to deploy a specific version of the artifact to the servers.
+
+### Schedule
+
+You can set up task scheduling by specifying a cron schedule in the template settings. Cron expression format you can find in [documentation](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/robfig/cron/v3#hdr-CRON\_Expression\_Format).

+
+#### Run a task when a new commit is added to the repository
+
+You can use cron to periodically check for new commits in the repository and trigger a task upon their arrival.
+
+For example you have source code of the app in the git repository. You can add it to **Repositories** and trigger the Build task for new commits.
