Copy an app to another workspace

Updated Jun 25, 2026

Use Transfers to send a copy of one of your apps to a different workspace. It's a two-admin handshake — nothing is copied without the destination admin's approval — and your original app is never changed.

Reasons for copy Apps to another workspace

  • You are closing a workspace and want to move your apps to another workspace
  • You have procured new workspaces for development, test / staging to keep these enviorments isolated from production. You want to copy your workspace to new workspaces for development, staging or testing
  • You have procured new workspaces for different business units, regions due to business demands, and you want to copy the apps to re-use them in these new workspaces.

How to copy an app to another workspace?

  • Go to Admin console → Transfers.
  • Pick the app(s), enter the destination admin's email, then choose the destination workspace.
  • Choose whether to include record data and send.
  • The destination admin approves the request under Incoming; on approval the app is copied in.

Send a copy

  • Go to Admin console → Transfers.
  • Pick the app(s), enter a destination admin's email, then choose the destination workspace from the list (an email may administer several).
  • Choose whether to include record data and send.

Approve

  • The destination admin sees the request under Incoming and approves or declines it. You can cancel a pending request.
  • On approval the app is copied in — schema, master data, and (if chosen) records.

Good to know

  • The copy must fit the destination's plan limits (apps, forms/dashboards per app, languages). If not, approval is refused until they upgrade or make room.
  • Both sides get notifications in Messages for the request, approval, copy, decline and cancel.
  • Copying within the same workspace? Use the app card's copy icon instead.
