# SpatialTemplateElement

An interface that defines an element in your spatial template.

## Declaration

```swift
protocol SpatialTemplateElement : Hashable, Sendable
```

## Overview

Overview A type that adopts the SpatialTemplateElement protocol defines the location and orientation of a participant in a group activity. You don’t adopt this protocol directly in your custom types. Instead, you use types that adopt this protocol to retrieve the corresponding details.
