Duplicate custom field
This seems like a basic feature but it seems it doesn't exist. Is there a way to duplicate a custom field? I have a single select custom field with a long list of options. I want to create another custom field that has the same list of options, but with a different field name. The only way I found to do this is to manually type in the same long list of options. It would be great to control-click on a custom field, see "Duplicate", and then open the field settings to change the name.
Hi Karen Sudre, thank you for creating this post. This option is currently not available, however, I can clearly see its value. I've passed your suggestion on to our Product Team 👍
We have a use case for this as well. We have multiple products with unique custom fields per product (in a custom item type). We have to add each custom field manually (including all conditional formatting settings) for each product when we want to add a field or calculation. This is extremely time consuming compared to duplicating and adjusting the calculation for each product.
Same request. I would like to use the same single-select options, across multiple custom fields, without always having to key in the same options, over again.
Thanks folks, I'll share your feedback with the team. Please don't forget to upvote Karen't post if you haven't yet 🙂

Upvoted! We also have many single-select custom fields with long lists of options that I now need to re-type. In our case, we date some of our custom fields according to our sales seasons for better trackability. The options themselves might change slightly from season to season, and the season date of the custom field must change from year to year. It would save so much time and energy to be able to duplicate custom fields the same way reports and request forms can already be duplicated!
Beyond this, even if I could easily copy-paste my list of options into a word processor for editing I could save a lot of time... I dread making this change every season because it's such a time-killer.

Upvoted by me too! This would radically change how time consuming it is to add the same data throughout custom fields!!
