How to Clone Widgets to Another Dashboard
Introduction
Built the perfect set of widgets and want them on another dashboard too? Instead of rebuilding them one by one, use the Clone to Dashboard bulk action: select the widgets once, pick a destination dashboard, and Qvasa copies them over — filters, chart types, and configuration included — into a fresh tab on the target.
Before You Begin
You need edit access to both dashboards — the one you are copying from and the one you are copying to. The destination picker only lists dashboards you can edit.
Clone to Dashboard lives in Multi-Select Mode. If you have not used it before, see How to Bulk Edit Dashboard Widgets with Multi-Select.
Step 1: Select the Widgets to Clone
Open the source dashboard, click Edit, then click Multi-Select in the toolbar (or press Cmd+M). Click each widget you want to copy — selected widgets get a checkmark and the action bar keeps count:
Step 2: Click Clone to Dashboard and Pick the Destination
Click Clone to Dashboard in the action bar. A searchable picker opens listing the dashboards you can edit — start typing to narrow the list, then click the destination:
Step 3: Done — Qvasa Confirms the Clone
The widgets are copied immediately and a confirmation tells you exactly where they landed:
What It Looks Like on the Target Dashboard
Open the destination dashboard and you will find a new tab named "From <source dashboard>" holding your cloned widgets. The row layout from the source is preserved — widgets that shared a row still share a row:
From here the clones are ordinary widgets: rename the tab, move them around, or adjust their filters — changes on the target never affect the originals on the source dashboard.
Good to Know
Everything carries over. Each clone keeps its widget type, chart type and size, configuration, and applied filters.
The source stays untouched. Clone to Dashboard copies — it never moves or removes widgets from the source dashboard.
Clones always land in a new tab. If you clone from the same source again, the new tab gets a numbered name ("From Support Overview 2", and so on).
Dashboards without tabs get tabs. If the destination did not use tabs yet, tabs are enabled automatically and its existing widgets move into a tab called First Tab, with your clones arriving in their own tab next to it.
Tab limit. A dashboard can hold up to 15 tabs — if the destination is full, Qvasa tells you and nothing is cloned.
