Cloning creates a new project from an existing one, copying most of its contents but none of its history.
A project card overflow menu showing Open Project, Edit Project, Clone Project, Manage Collaborations, and Delete Project.

The project card menu. Clone sits between Edit and Manage Collaborations.

Hover a project card on the dashboard and open the menu at its lower right. Alongside Clone Project sit Open, Edit, Manage Collaborations, and Delete. You can change the title, description, and client name as you clone, so a copy made for a new client does not arrive carrying the old one’s name.

What a Clone Copies

On a web project, almost everything: On a low-code project, only the blueprint. Files, artifacts, requirement folders, source, design system, credentials, and MCP connections are all left behind. A cloned low-code project starts with its specification and nothing else.
Platform credentials carry over only when the clone stays on the same platform. A clone that changes platform starts without them, because the connection details of one platform mean nothing to another.

Tickets and Epics Do Not Come with It

A clone brings the specification, not the work breakdown. No Tickets and no Epics are copied, even on a web project where everything else is. That is usually what you want. Generate Tickets from the cloned blueprint and you get a fresh set matching the specification as it now stands, rather than inheriting statuses and assignments from a different engagement. See CAB-to-Ticket conversion.

While It Runs

Cloning a project with source code takes a while, and the copy appears on your dashboard while the work is still going on. Its state moves from cloning to completed. If it fails, the card offers a retry. Retries are capped at three, after which the message reads:
Maximum retry attempts (3) exceeded. Please delete this clone and create a new one.
Deleting a failed clone removes only the copy. The original is untouched.
