Duplicate a Power Apps solution

[s44]

Hello,

I have a Power Apps solution on my environment that I would like to duplicate so that I can have it in duplicate on my environment. This way, I can modify one without impacting the other. But I can't duplicate the solution. I tried the import/export option but it overwhelms the old solution.

Can you help me please ? thanks in advance.

You can do this by utilizing the Clone feature. When you click on the 3 dots after your solution name you see the Clone option Button, 

you this is how you can get a clone of solution or Clone a Patch. to get more understanding please have a look on this link:

Hi,

1. Open Power Apps: Go to make.powerapps.com.

2. Find your App: Navigate to the 'Apps' section and locate the app you want to duplicate.

3. Save As: Click on the ellipsis (...) next to your app, then select 'Save As'.

4. Set Name: Provide a new name for the duplicate app.

5. Save: Click the 'Save' button to create a copy.

6. Edit (if needed): Open the duplicated app to make any necessary edits.

7. Publish: After editing, publish the duplicated app to make it available for use.

Hello, I have not "Save As" 😞

The problem with this option is that all the modifications I make to the clone also impact the first version of the solution. 😞

• When I export my solution, even changing the name, it overwrites my previous solution. ,😭

Hi,

while export you have to select "Create as New" Instead of "Update" 

Spoiler

make sure to select create as new instead of update
