How to copy Knowledge Article Template custom field values to Knowledge Article

Madura, can you share the steps for what you did? I want to copy the Article Template Name to the Knowledge Article table and do not know how to do it. I tried adding a column that matches the format of the Name column and setting up Mapping of the 2 columns but nothing happens in my org at work. When I do the same thing on a Developer instance, it works as expected.

Thanks Haig Liu,

I ended up with a lookup field to Article Template and a .js code to copy data.
