Can You Duplicate an Entire Application, With All Its Elements, Right From the Action Bar?

Yes. In Jestor, the action bar (opened with Ctrl+K or Cmd+K) lets you clone an entire application, with every element it contains, just by choosing the source app and giving the copy a new name.

Why cloning from the action bar is faster

Manually rebuilding an app from scratch, field by field, is slow — especially when a similar app is already up and running. The action bar lets you make that copy in seconds, without navigating through several menus.

What happens when you clone an application

  • Every element from the original app gets replicated in the copy
  • The copy gets the new name set during cloning
  • The original app is not affected by the cloning
  • The copy can be freely edited afterward, without impacting the source app

How to duplicate an application from the action bar

  1. Press Ctrl+K (or Cmd+K) to open the action bar
  2. Choose the option to clone applications
  3. Select the app that will serve as the source for the copy
  4. Type the new name and confirm — the copy is created with every element

Process automation with fast reuse

Duplicating a ready-made app, instead of rebuilding from scratch, speeds up process automation for companies that replicate the same logic across different areas, like the same control used by different teams.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to save a record twice, in Jestor and in Omie? No, cloning also copies the record data unless you choose otherwise during the process.

Does cloning an app affect the original app in any way? No, the copy is fully independent from the original app.

Does this feature only work from the action bar, or is there another way? The action bar is the fastest way, but cloning can also be done through other menus inside jestor.com.
