Hi,

We think about creating a new project for a different team. The database and layout will be slightly different but roughly 80% of the project will be the same. The users will be different.

Is there a way to duplicate an existing project ? It would save us a lot of time in creating layout.

Hey @mduhez 👋

We currently do not have any way of duplicating a project. I can push it to our product board, but I’m curious of what are the difference between your two projects.

I’m guessing that the [teams](https://docs.forestadmin.com/user-guide/project-settings/teams-and-users/create-and-manage-a-team) feature is not enough for your need, right?  
Maybe we can find a workaround that suit your need without requiring you to duplicate your project?
