Large number card duplication

Hello,

is there a way to duplicate an existing card?

E.g. I get 600 new printers. I want to be able to create 1 card with all the specifications and then duplicate that card 600 times.
I know I can create an XL sheet with the 600 entries for the printers, then create an import template and then import the cards. But I’ll need to do that for each and every class where I get large numbers of items.

Many thanks in advance

The other solution is to use the CMDBuild REST APIs.

Hello,

yes, but I’m not sure how our logistic team would be able to use the REST API to create e.g. 600 printers. Do you mean that we would have to develop a separate front-end for the logistic to allow them to call the REST API and create the entries?

It can be an external application, or a custom component (custom page, custom widget, context menu, etc.) to be included in the frontend of CMDBuild.
