If you find yourself needing to produce a component that is very similar to an existing one, you can copy an existing component from the component builder. You'll need to be a member of the Component Administrators security group to do this.

  1. Open the component you want to copy by selecting it in the Component listing.
  2. When the Component builder opens, press the Action button from the component toolbar.
  3. Press Copy from the menu.
  4. The component will be copied and opened for editing. The new component will have '- copy' appended to its name.
  5. You'll need to update the component name and API ID of your new component.
  6. Edit and update your component by adding or removing fields.
