Clone a Konnector

Create a copy of an existing konnector — either as an exact duplicate with all connections and field mappings intact, or as a clean template with just the workflow structure.

What is Cloning?

Cloning lets you duplicate an existing konnector without rebuilding it from scratch. It's useful when you want to reuse a workflow for a similar use case, test changes without affecting a live konnector, or share a workflow structure across different accounts or environments.

There are two clone options. Choosing the right one depends on how much of the original konnector you want to carry over.

Clone

Exact duplicate

App actions — ✅ Copied
Workflow structure — ✅ Copied
Connections — ✅ Copied
Field mappings — ✅ Copied

Best for duplicating a working konnector for a similar use case where the same apps and configuration apply.

Clone as Template

Structure only

App actions — ✅ Copied
Workflow structure — ✅ Copied
Connections — ❌ Not copied
Field mappings — ❌ Not copied

Best for reusing a workflow pattern across different environments where connections need to be set up fresh.

How to Clone a Konnector

Go to Konnectors

In the left navigation, click Konnectors under the Workflows section. You'll see a list of all your konnectors.

Open the actions menu

Find the konnector you want to clone. Click the three dots ( ⋮ ) in the Actions column on the right side of that row.

Select Clone

A dropdown appears with options: Edit, Clone, Add to Folder, and Delete. Click Clone.

Choose your clone type

A dialog box appears: "Clone Konnector — [Konnector Name]". You'll see three buttons:

Cancel — Closes the dialog. No changes are made.
Clone as Template — Creates a copy with app actions and workflow structure only. Connections and field mappings are left blank for you to configure.
Clone — Creates an exact copy with all connections and field mappings carried over.

Find your cloned konnector

The cloned konnector appears in your Konnectors list. It will be named Copy of [Original Name]. Click on it to open and make any changes needed.

When to Use Each Option

Scenario	Use Clone	Use Clone as Template
Same apps, same accounts, slightly different logic	✅ Yes	Not needed
Testing changes without affecting the live konnector	✅ Yes	Either works
Sharing a workflow pattern without sharing credentials	❌ Avoid — copies connections	✅ Yes
Starting a new konnector from an existing structure	Either works	✅ Cleaner start

Things to Know

Item	Detail
Cloned konnector name	Named Copy of [Original Name] by default. Rename it by opening the konnector.
Status after cloning	The cloned konnector is inactive by default — it will not run until you activate it.
Original konnector	Cloning does not affect or modify the original konnector in any way.
Folders	The clone is not automatically placed in the same folder as the original. Add it to a folder manually if needed.
Clone as Template — connections	All connection fields will be blank. You must reconnect each app before activating.
Clone as Template — field mappings	All field mappings are cleared. You'll need to remap fields in each action step.
Event logs	The cloned konnector starts with no event log history. Logs are independent from the original.

Important: If you use Clone (not Clone as Template), the copied konnector shares the same connection credentials as the original. Any changes to those connections will affect both konnectors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will cloning affect my original konnector? +

No. Cloning creates a completely separate copy. The original konnector is not modified, and it continues to run as normal.

Can I clone a konnector that is currently active? +

Yes. You can clone an active konnector. The clone is created in an inactive state by default — it will not run automatically until you activate it.

What is the difference between Clone and Clone as Template? +

Clone is an exact copy — it includes all app actions, connections, and field mappings. Use it when you want a ready-to-run duplicate for the same apps and accounts.

Clone as Template copies only the app actions and workflow structure. Connections and field mappings are left blank so you can set them up fresh. Use it when reusing a workflow pattern for a different account or environment.

Can I rename the cloned konnector? +

Yes. The clone is named Copy of [Original Name] by default. Open the cloned konnector and rename it to anything you like.

Does the cloned konnector appear in the same folder? +

No. The cloned konnector appears in the main Konnectors list, not in any folder. Use the Add to Folder option from the three-dot menu to organise it.

I cloned as template — what do I need to configure before activating? +

Before activating a konnector cloned as a template, you need to:

Connect each app action to the correct account or credentials.
Re-map all field mappings in every action step.
Test the konnector to confirm everything is working as expected.
