# Duplicating Modules

**Duplicate Module** creates a copy of the current module in the same application. Use it as a starting point when building a module similar to an existing one.

To duplicate a module:

1. Open the module in the Module Builder.
2. Select the ellipsis menu in the header.
3. Select **Duplicate Module**.

The duplicate displays in the application alongside the original.

## What Gets Copied

The duplicate includes the following from the original module:

- All components and their configurations.
- Module type and module-level settings.
- Tags.
- Express role permissions.

Workflow connections are not copied. If the original module is connected to a workflow, that connection must be set up again on the duplicate.

## After Duplicating

Unqork appends "Copy" to the module name and to distinguish the duplicate from the original. Before using the duplicate, review and update the following:

- **Module name**: Update to reflect the duplicate's purpose.
- **Module path**: Update to a unique path appropriate for the duplicate.
- **Module settings**: Review any module-level settings that may need adjustment.
