# Copy a report

You can duplicate any report to which you have access, unless the owner has specifically disabled this in the sharing options.

### How copying a report works <a href="#how-copying-a-report-works" id="how-copying-a-report-works"></a>

When you copy a report, the copy inherits the following from the original:

* pages
* charts
* date range controls
* filter controls
* data and style settings (e.g. colors, fonts, decimal precision, etc.)
* text, shapes, and images
* filters

Copying a report does **not** create copies of its data sources. When you copy a report, you must select which data source(s) to use for the copy. If you have at least view access to the original data sources, you can use those; otherwise, you must select new data sources to use.

You can always add your own data sources to any reports you copy. This lets you treat any report as a template, if you wish.

If you add a data source that doesn't match the schema of the original data source, the charts and controls on the report may break (since they won't have access to the dimensions and metrics they were built on.) In addition, your selection of data source may impact filters.

### To copy a report <a href="#to-copy-a-report" id="to-copy-a-report"></a>

1. View the report. (If you are currently in **Edit mode**, click **View** button.)

3. Select the data source(s) to use in the copy. The *Create new report* dialog (shown below) lists the original data sources currently added to the template on the left. On the right, you can choose the data sources to use in your copied report. If the original data source has been shared with you, you can use that one. Or you can select one of your own data sources, or even create a new one at this time.
4. Click **Copy Report**.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.antsomi.com/cdp-365-user-guide-en/insights/reports/create-reports/copy-a-report.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
