Duplicate a Blocks App

Blocks enables you to duplicate an app. This is useful especially if you want to share an app with someone else, but don't want them to change the original one. 

Duplicate Your App

  1. Make sure that you are logged in to the app owner user.
  2. Open the app that you want to duplicate in Blocks.
  3. Click the App tab in the top bar. 
  4. Click Duplicate.
  5. The duplicated app opens in a new tab.

Note If you don't see the new app in your app dashboard, click Build to create a version of the app.

Note: Self hosted extensions and installation settings aren't duplicated in this process. Add them again to the new app.

Share Your App

Now that you duplicated your app, you can share it with more people. 

  1. Click the App tab in the top bar.
  2. Click Collaborators to share this app with your colleagues. They will get an email inviting them to edit the app.
