    Hello,


    We are looking to address full duplication of the template. One questions that sticks out is versions. If a template that also has versions is duplicated would the expectation that the versions are also duplicated in the copy?


    Additionally what if we surfaced a unique identifier for a template to effectively allow for sending of the template across any sending domain. So in your API call you would be using the unique ID rather then the template name? That is to say as an option, we are not going to be breaking any integrations that are using the template name currently. Let me know what you think.

    love the idea of using IDs instead of template names! names tend to have spaces

    in the meantime, you can use this to copy a template:

    re: duplicating versions or not

    just copying a single version is fine if that's easier for you guys to provide.

    only a single version can be active anyway, so, versions aren't really useful for much except as backups. unless i am misunderstanding something.

    eg, the challenge here is i make a template and then ask for variations on the theme, eg, specialized to different customer lists. these different versions cannot be used without carefully toggling which is "active"; one wrong move and the wrong email goes to the wrong list)

    just need to be able to clone a template, edit it, and be able to reference it, "live"

    I completely agree, templates are a complete mess without the ability to duplicate one
