You can copy a data model in your current instance and modify any of its metadata or parameter values to create a close copy without having to recreate the data model from scratch.

## Procedure

1. Log in as a campaign owner, or make sure the role assigned to you has permissions to add and manage data models and campaigns.
2. From the data model list, point to the data model you want to clone and click the copy icon displayed to the right.

   A page opens listing all the original values of the data model.
3. Modify any of the data model metadata or values and click Copy a Data Model.

   The data model name is automatically suffixed with - Copy.

## Results

The data model is listed in the data model list and its metadata and values are updated according to your changes.
