Duplicate a Data connection

Hello all,

Everything in the title : i want to duplicate a data connection. Sometimes, especially for rest connection, it takes several minutes to re-configure everything and make sure everything is ok.


Best regards,

Simon

Just a comment  to say : this feature is missing...create again and again some data connections whithout the capabilities to duplicate them... it's so 😥😫

agree, we should also have the possibility to edit an existing connection, modify something in it, change its name and "save as.." rather than "save" which erases the previous connection even if we had changed its name.

Bump - would be very useful (also stop renaming data connections with (<username>) if someone edits it in front end).
