Duplicating dashboards
You might want to duplicate a dashboard when you need to create variations of existing dashboards. For example, you could duplicate a dashboard that tracks costs by service, then modify the copy to track costs by a different dimension like Region or cost allocation tag. This saves time compared to creating a new dashboard from scratch.
When you duplicate a dashboard, you create an independent copy with the same widget configurations as the original. The new dashboard appears with "duplicate" added to the original name, which you can modify at any time. Any subsequent changes to the original dashboard won't affect your duplicate, and vice versa.
