# Saving a Snippet

Snippets are reusable packages of component configurations that Creators save and share across modules. Once saved, a snippet displays in the Snippets library and is available for any Creator in the environment to drag onto a canvas.

## Steps

1. In the Module Builder header, select the drop-down arrow next to **Save**.
2. Select **Save as Snippet**.
3. Complete the fields in the Save as Snippet modal.
4. Select **Save Snippet**.

## Save as Snippet Modal

| Field | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Snippet Name** | A name for the snippet. Required. |
| **Description** | A description of the snippet's purpose. |
| **Snippet Tags** | Tags for organizing and filtering the snippet in the library. |
| **Upload Image** | A preview image for the snippet tile. Drag and drop a file or select **browse** to upload. |
| **Configuration Level** | The complexity level of the snippet. Select the level that best reflects how much expertise is required to use or understand it. **Basic** is for straightforward patterns, **Intermediate** for moderately complex configurations, and **Advanced** for configurations that require deeper platform knowledge. |

Expanding **Advanced Options** reveals the following additional fields:

| Field | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Additional Signaling** | An indicator for communicating the snippet's status or quality to other Creators. Use it to signal whether a snippet is recommended (**Good**), should be used with care (**Caution**), or is not recommended (**Bad**). |
| **Feature Functionality** | A description of what the snippet does. |
| **Requirements** | Any prerequisites or dependencies the snippet requires to function correctly. |

## Snippets Library

Saved snippets appear in the Snippets library, organized by category. Each snippet displays as a tile with a title, description, and tags. The library includes the following two sources:

- **Local Snippets**: Snippets created and saved in the environment. Available to all Creators in the environment.
- **Marketplace Snippets**: Snippets downloaded to the environment from the Unqork Marketplace.

To add a snippet to a module, drag it from the library onto the canvas. The snippet's components are added as a group.
