How-to | Duplicate a Dataiku project#
In many situations, an existing project can serve as a useful template for a new project. The ability to duplicate projects avoids having to manually replicate a Flow.
To duplicate a project, follow the steps below:
Find the duplicate button using one of the following methods:
From the homepage of the project you want to copy, select Actions > Duplicate project.
From the Projects page, right-click on the tile of the project you want to copy and select Duplicate project.
In the dialog window, edit the project name and key and specify a destination folder where Dataiku must copy the project.
(Optional) Configure advanced options such as duplication mode (should Dataiku duplicate all data or only the Flow?) and any connections that may need to be re-mapped.
Tip
The different duplication modes include:
Flow only: Copy only the project structure (no data).
Uploaded files: Copy data from uploaded datasets and managed folders.
Required inputs: Copy data for all input datasets required to run the Flow.
Full duplication: Copy all datasets (inputs and outputs) as well as managed folders.
Input sharing: Don’t copy input data; reuse the original datasets.
Click Duplicate to start the duplication process.

For more information on duplicating projects within or across instances, see the How to Copy a Dataiku Project article in the reference documentation.
To copy only part of a project, it’s also possible to copy individual Dataiku items, like datasets and recipes, rather than duplicate the entire project. You can even copy individual steps of a Prepare recipe.
