Duplicating Cards ("Save As")

Intro

You can use the Save As option to duplicate a Card to create a new instance of that Card that can be manipulated separately from the original Card. This is different from the Copy functionality because Cards that are copied are still linked—if you make a change to a copy, the original and any other copies receive the same changes. You can change the name and underlying data of the duplicate, and the original stays the same. When you duplicate a Card, you are assigned as the owner of the new instance of the Card.

To duplicate a Card, you must have an Editor, Privileged, or Admin security role, or a custom role with the Edit Cards grant enabled.

You can also duplicate multiple Cards at once in the Admin Settings. You must have an Admin security role to use this feature. For more information about security roles, see Security Role Reference.
