How to duplicate a project
Click the three-dot menu [...] on the right side of the project, then select [Duplicate].
When the confirmation dialog appears, click [Duplicate].
Once duplication is complete, the owner who ran it will receive an email notification, and the duplicated project will appear in the [Projects] list. Edit the project name and settings as needed.
Duplication runs asynchronously, so it may take some time to complete.
If you'd like to check the result before receiving the completion email, refresh the projects list.
Reset a project
Resetting a project returns it to its initial state.
For details, see Reset a project.
Archive a project
If you have projects you no longer need in your projects list, you can archive them to keep things organized.
Archived projects are hidden from the list of the account that archived them, but remain visible to other members who share the project.
Note: Projects can't be permanently deleted.
How to archive a project
Open your projects list.
Click the three-dot menu [...] on the right side of the project.
