# Get a mission template

> Retrieve a mission template's data server side, such as its options, label, or description.

Export to get a mission template server side, in case you want to retrieve its data — for example options, label, description, etc.

A good example of usage is a custom menu that displays only a limited number of missions, showing their label and description using this export.

If you want to start a mission manually after selecting it, you can use the [`startMission` export](/missions-creator/server/start-mission) to do so.

```lua Export: getMissionTemplate theme={null}
exports["missions_creator"]:getMissionTemplate(templateId)
```
