Duplicate a bundle

To create a new version of a bundle, you can duplicate it.

Duplicating a bundle creates a new bundle with the same items as the original. Over time, the items in each bundle might change independently as items are added or removed.

Duplicating a bundle creates a new .p4bundle file, but does not create new versions of the items in the original bundle.

A bundle duplicate functions like any other bundle. You can add or remove items, comment, add links, or view bundle details. Because duplicated bundles and the original bundle share the same items, any changes to those items, such as comments, appear in both bundles.

To create a reference to a bundle in another location, see Copy a bundle.

Duplicate a bundle

1. Open the bundle to duplicate.

2. Click the vertical ellipsis button next to the bundle name.

3. Click Duplicate asset bundle.

   The Duplicate asset bundle pane opens.

4. Enter a name for the new bundle.

   The name must be unique. Special characters and spaces are not supported, and the name must be 100 characters or less.

   If you don’t enter a name, it defaults to the name of the original bundle appended with -duplicate.

5. Click Browse to select a location for the new bundle.

   If you don’t select a location, it defaults to the same folder level as the original bundle.

6. Click Select to confirm the duplicate bundle location.

7. Click Duplicate.

   A duplicate of the bundle is added to the selected folder or collection.

A bundle duplicate has no cover image by default. To select a cover image, see Manage a bundle cover image.

Convert a bundle copy to a bundle duplicate

2. Click Duplicate.

   The Duplicate asset bundle pane opens. You cannot change the name or location of the bundle.

3. Click Duplicate.

   The bundle is converted from a copy to a duplicate.
