Copy a Component
/sites/management/api/v1/components/{id}/copy
Copy a component by providing a new component name and optional description. Component names are case sensitive and two components cannot share the same name. Use only letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores in component names. Copying a component also copies the component folder, including all the component artifacts.
Introduced in release 19.4.1.
Authorization
To invoke this operation, the authenticated user or client application must have been shared with the resource and have one of the following sharing roles:
- Owner
- Manager
- Contributor
- Downloader
To invoke this operation, the authenticated user or client application must have one of the following roles:
- CECDeveloperUser
- CECSitesAdministrator
- CECContentAdministrator
Asynchronous Processing
This operation supports both asynchronous and synchronous processing. The client can specify a preferred interaction mode by adding a Prefer
header with a value of respond-async
. The server may change an asynchronous request to synchronous so the client should be prepared to handle both cases. An accepted response will include a Location
header, which provides the location of a status resource that can be polled to obtain information about the asynchronous processing.
Path Alternative Identifiers
The default identifier for a Component resource is the Component Identifier. The Component resource supports alternative identifiers.
nameComponent Name
Instead of the component identifier, the component name can be used to uniquely identify a component in the resource path. The default resource path parameter for a component is the component identifier, but when working with components the human-readable component name is sometimes easier.
