# Include file or template in template [Jinja2](http://jinja.pocoo.org/docs/2.10/templates/) provides the ability to include an external file/template from within a template with the directive `include`. See the [related doc](http://jinja.pocoo.org/docs/2.10/templates/#include) for more. The path must be relative to the `dotpath`. For example: ```yaml {%@@ include 'colors/black.colors' @@%} ``` Of course, paths could be also dynamically generated using variables. For example: ```yaml {%@@ include colors_path + '/black.colors' @@%} ```
