Creating a copy, or duplicate, of an automation in your account is easy and only takes a few moments to do.

  1. Click Automations on the left menu.
  2. From the Automations Overview page, locate the automation you wish to copy.
  3. Click the dropdown next to the "Edit" button for that automation. 
  4. Click "Copy."
     
  5. A toast notification showing the copy progression at the top right. When it reaches 100% the notification will disappear, and the copy will be complete.

The automation copy will appear at the top of the Automations Overview page:

  • "(copy)" will appear as part of the automation name
  • The automation will be "Inactive" by default
  • Contacts in the original automation will not be carried over to the copied version
  • Options selected in the original automation's Settings will not be carried over to the copied version
  • Any edits you make to the copy will not affect the original, and vice versa

If you wish to share your automation with another ActiveCampaign user instead, you can create a share link for that automation. The other ActiveCampaign user can use that share link to import a copy of your automation.
