[Python] Import ToonBoom Harmony's .tpl templates programmatically, inside an .xstage project

Any idea about how to Import or Add some .tpl elements to the actual .xstage file via Python (or JS)?

I can see there is an Add function, but it only works with Clipboard maybe?

There is a copy_from_template function, but, unfortunately, I don't understand why I'm getting this error trying to copy the template:

from ToonBoom import harmony
harmony.Clipboard.copy_from_template("C:/path/to/the/tpldirectory")

# > Traceback (most recent call last):
# > File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
# > TypeError: descriptor 'copy_from_template' for 'harmony.Clipboard' objects doesn't apply to a 'str' object


More info on official documentation about copy_from_template here

and here the documentation for the equivalent using Javascript API for the copyFromTemplate here

Unfortunately I'm not sure if the approach I'm trying is feasible either...

Thanks in advance.
