With the Copy action, you can create a full copy of a structure, and, optionally, clone every issue in the structure.
If you need to copy only a part of a structure, create a new empty structure and use Issue Clipboard to copy a part of the structure.
To create structure copy:
Find the structure you'd like to copy and click Copy link in the Operations column.
If you don't see Copy in the Operations column, then you probably don't have permissions to create new structures.
The Copy Structure page will show you the information about the structure, including its size and the number of issues, generators, and synchronizers it contains. If the structure contains automation, you can click the Calculate link in the Visible Content section to execute the generators and see the generated content statistics.
