Clone a project

Last updated: September 29, 2026

Copy an existing project, along with its database connections, changelogs, tags, and pipelines.

Before you begin

  • These steps happen in the Liquibase Server web application.

  • A running server, its URL from your administrator, and a user account. See Manage your account.

  • If the server is not set up yet, run Liquibase Server locally on your own machine or use an internally deployed server. Both guides are under Set up and configure Liquibase Secure server.

Procedure

1

Open the Projects dashboard

In the left navigation, select Projects. This opens the Projects dashboard, which lists all available projects.

2

Start the clone

Find the project you want to copy and select Clone on its row. You can also open the project first and select Clone in the header.

3

Name the clone

The Name field is optional.

Leave it blank and the clone takes the original's name with a unique suffix appended, in the form example-project (Copy) - eadd42. Enter a name that no other project is using and the clone takes it exactly as typed. Enter one that is already taken and it gets the same suffix.

4

Create the copy

Select Clone. A confirmation appears and the new project is added to the dashboard. Select Cancel instead to discard it.

Note: The clone carries over the original's description, database connection and changelog associations, tags, and active pipelines. Each copied pipeline keeps its name, identifier, description, and connection order. Archived pipelines, database connections, and changelogs are not copied, and restoring one later does not add it to the clone. Deployment history stays with the original project. Connections and changelogs are shared rather than duplicated, so the clone points at the same records as the original.
