+### Using a markdown template
+
+In this example, a markdown template file is added to the repository at `.github/pull-request-template.md` with the following content.
+```
+This is a test pull request template
+Render template variables such as {{ .foo }} and {{ .bar }}.
+```
+
+The template is rendered using the [render-template](https://github.com/chuhlomin/render-template) action and the result is used to create the pull request.
+```yml
+      - name: Render template
+        id: template
+        uses: chuhlomin/render-template@v1.2
+        with:
+          template: .github/pull-request-template.md
