How to duplicate your Projects

Make a copy of a project and its Innovation Opportunity details to start a similar initiative quickly.

Duplicating creates a new project with the same details as the original, plus a new linked Innovation Opportunity. Use it to start a similar initiative without retyping everything.

Before you start

You can duplicate projects you created, projects in your team workspaces, and projects shared with you.

Steps

  1. Open the Leader view and choose your workspace in the strip on the far left (My Work or a team).
  2. In the sidebar, click Innovation Opportunities.
  3. Click the ... menu on the project's row and click Duplicate.
  4. Confirm with OK when asked "Are you sure?".
  5. The new opportunity page opens with the message "Opportunity was successfully duplicated." Its name starts with "Copy of".
  6. Click the ... menu at the top right of the page and click Edit to rename the copy and update its dates and other details.

What is copied

  • The project's Challenge statement, Objectives, Description, Start Date, End Date, Budget and Responsible.
  • A new opportunity is created in the Unassigned portfolio of the same workspace.
  • Sprints and sessions are not copied, and neither are hypotheses, small bets, resources, spending or Next Tools from the original opportunity.

Tips

  • Projects shared with you also have a Duplicate option. In the Instigator sidebar, click Shared with me, then use the ... menu on the project's row.
  • Sprints are not copied with the project. To reuse a sprint, duplicate it from the Instigator Sprints list.
