# Coveo File Result Template
> **Legacy feature**
>
> The Coveo Hive Framework is now in maintenance mode and is no longer recommended for new implementations.
> 
> To build new search experiences, use one of Coveo's more modern, lightweight, and responsive libraries.
> To get started, see the [Build search](https://docs.coveo.com/en/2473/) article.

![Coveo for Sitecore Specific Rendering](c4sc-v5/sitecore-20-px-new.png)
Provides a [Coveo JavaScript Search Framework](https://docs.coveo.com/en/187/) Underscore.js result template for [Coveo Results List](https://docs.coveo.com/en/3036/) and [Coveo Omnibox Result List](https://docs.coveo.com/en/3070/) renderings using an on-disk `.cshtml` file.

## Usage notes

* The **{doctitle}** rendering data source must reference the result template `.cshtml` filename.
Save your result template `.cshtml` file in the `<SITECORE_INSTANCE_ROOT>\Coveo\Hive\templates` folder.

* For more result template content details and examples, refer to the [Edit the content of a result template](https://docs.coveo.com/en/2834/) article.

* Typical search interface result sections contain several result template renderings (whether **Coveo Item Result Template** renderings, **Coveo File Result Template** renderings, or a combination of both) with conditions that determine the template a result item will use.
The order of your result template renderings in the `Result Templates` placeholder is important (see [Result template conditions](https://docs.coveo.com/en/2173#result-template-conditions)).

## Insertion location

## Sample generated HTML and corresponding visual output

Consider a situation where you create separate result templates for your `Books` Sitecore template items, and your `Author` Sitecore template items.
Using a `Template based condition` in your **Coveo File Result Template** rendering data sources, each rendering would generate outputs similar to the following.

```xml
<script id="coveo9b6c6a33" class="result-template" type="text/x-underscore-template"
data-prebind-sc-all-conditions="unfoldDictionaryToAttributesPrebind"
data-sc-all-conditions="{&quot;_template&quot; : &quot;F28528EB0B724D70B476FFD9F1A169F0&quot;}"
data-applied-prebind="true" data-field-z95xtemplate="F28528EB0B724D70B476FFD9F1A169F0">
<!-- content of the .cshtml file referenced in the data source appears here -->
</script>
```
