Cloning Projects

There are three ways to clone (copy) a project:

Cloning a Project at the Root Level
  1. If you have not already done so, click Create to create a new session or click Edit to enter an existing session. See Using the Change Center.
  2. Select Project Explorer > Projects to display the Projects View page.
  3. Click the  Clone Project icon in the row of the project you want to clone. The Clone Project page is displayed with the current location of the project highlighted.
  4. In the New Name field, enter a name for the clone. See Naming Projects and Folders.
  5. Use a unique name to create the clone as a new project, or use the name of an existing project to merge the clone with that project.

  6. In the Location panel, keep the default Root location when cloning a project at the root level.
  7. Click Clone Project. The project is cloned in the current session.
  8. To end the session and deploy the configuration to the run time, click Activate under Change Center.
Cloning a Project and Demoting the Clone to a Folder
  1. If you have not already done so, click Create to create a new session or click Edit to enter an existing session. See Using the Change Center.
  2. Select Project Explorer > Projects to display the Projects View page.
  3. Click the  Clone Project icon in the row of the project you want to clone. The Clone Project page is displayed with the current location of the project highlighted.
  4. In the New Name field, optionally enter a new name for the folder. See Naming Projects and Folders.
  5. Use a unique name to create a new folder, or use the name of an existing folder to merge the clone with the existing folder (in the location you will select in the next step).

  6. In the Location panel, select a project or folder, then click Clone Project. The cloned project is converted to a folder in the new location and is saved in the current session.
  7. To end the session and deploy the configuration to the run time, click Activate under Change Center.
