Cloning Questions

How to clone one or more questions in the Question Bank — selecting a destination folder and controlling how tags and labels are copied.

Updated 2026/10/13

Cloning creates an exact copy of one or more questions. The originals are left unchanged. You can redirect clones to a different folder and control how tags and labels are handled on the copies.

How to Clone

  1. In the Questions tab, select the questions you want to clone using the checkboxes in the question list. Selections can include questions from more than one folder — for example when browsing “All folders” or using Find by ID.
  2. Click the Clone button in the toolbar. The button is disabled until at least one question is selected.
  3. Configure the clone options in the dialog that opens (see below).
  4. Click Clone (the button shows the number of selected questions). New copies of the selected questions are created immediately.

Clone Options

The Destination Folder setting offers Keep as-is or Change. Tags and Labels each offer Keep as-is, Add to existing, and Overwrite all.

Folder

With Keep as-is selected (the default), each clone stays in the same folder as its original — even if the selected questions come from different folders. Select Change to place the clones in a destination folder. Use the folder selector to choose an existing folder or create a new one under Create New Folder, then save the folder selection.

Tags

Three modes control how tags are handled on the cloned questions:

  • Keep as-is — clones retain their original tags.
  • Add to existing — clones keep their original tags and receive any additional tags you select.
  • Overwrite all — clones receive the selected tags in place of the originals' tags.

Labels

The same three modes apply to labels: Keep as-is preserves existing labels, Add to existing adds selected labels while retaining the originals, and Overwrite all replaces the originals' labels with the selected labels.

Plan Limits

If cloning the selected questions would exceed your plan's question limit, a warning banner appears in the dialog and the Confirm button is disabled. The banner shows how many slots remain and includes a link to upgrade your plan.
