The duplicate feature has three options: you can either duplicate the structure of the board (only the skeleton), duplicate the structure and content (meaning the skeleton and the content of the columns and groups) or duplicate the content and the updates. Keep reading to learn more. 👇
Duplicate the structure
Click on the board that you would like to duplicate, and then click the Three-Dot Menu Icon and choose More actions > Duplicate Board.
Next, select "structure only". The duplicate of your board will include the groups and the columns only as shown below:
Duplicate the structure and items
Click on the board that you would like to duplicate, and then click the Three-Dot Menu Icon and choose Duplicate Board and then Duplicate Structure & Items.
The duplicate of your board will include the groups, the columns and the items as below:
The integrations and automations on your board will also be duplicated except for the following recipes:
- Automation recipes that include mapping
- Cross-board automation recipes
Duplicate Items and Updates
Click on the board that you would like to duplicate, and then click the Three-Dot Menu Icon and choose Duplicate Board and then Duplicate Items & updates.
This functionality allows you to duplicate the content of your board with all the updates and files. Few points to take into account:
- Read only mode
The updates in the duplicate board will be in read only mode. This means that they cannot be modified or deleted. You also cannot like the duplicate update or reply to it.
- The entire post will be copied
This means that the update will be copied with its assets and the replies. If your update includes a checklist, your checklist will also be copied. Your checklist will be duplicated exactly as it is on the original post. This means that if one item is marked as done, it will be marked as done in the duplicate.
- Other duplication method
This is still not available for other duplication methods (duplicate single/batch items, duplicate group). We are planning to improve it in the future so stay tuned!
- Templates
Account templates will be duplicated with the posts.
- Limitation
The latest 100 posts of each item will be duplicated.
