Is it possible to clone an app?

Is there any feature that would allow me to duplicate a pipeline (app) and add few extra steps to the copied version?
Basically I want to avoid setting up everything from scratch.

Hi @app7dan,

Thanks for asking this here! :wink:

Absolutely!

Just open your App’s Workflow Editor and switch to bitrise.yml mode. There you can see the whole config (except uploaded files & Secret Env Vars). You can download it as a bitrise.yml file and run it with the CLI on your Mac/PC (https://www.bitrise.io/cli) or just copy paste the yml into another app.

Note: you can even edit the YML there, it’s a read-write editor for the YML. The other modes of the Workflow Editor are “just” a UI around the YML.

It would still be great to have a real “clone app” feature, which also clones secrets, certificates, etc …

Feel free to create a #feature-request for that @matthias.buchetics! :wink:
