Add Ability to Duplicate an Existing Box Form
Please add a feature that allows users to duplicate an existing Box Form, including all fields, structure, metadata mappings, and settings. Users should be able to clone a form, rename it, and make edits without rebuilding from scratch.
Why This Matters
Saves significant time when creating similar forms across departments, programs, or agencies.
Reduces errors by ensuring consistent fields, metadata, and logic across related forms.
Enables scalable templates, especially for public sector workflows like procurement, HR, inspections, grants, benefits, and compliance.
Accelerates PS SE and customer builds, allowing faster demos, labs, and solution rollouts.
Supports versioning needs, since agencies routinely update forms as policies and regulations change.
Impact
Faster solution deployment, higher form adoption, reduced build errors, and more repeatable patterns for enterprise and public sector customers.

By enabling duplication of forms it will allow admins to build out templates for a variety of departments and programs. This is critical for public sector use cases where different teams may need similar or the same forms routed to different folders & with different drop downs for example.

It would be great if we could have the ability to duplicate a form and then edit. We have quite a bit of repeated information that we need to collect via different forms, it would greatly help to be able to duplicate an existing and then edit to suit.
