Is there a way to duplicate a custom field?

Hi @Marisa_Lunde , welcome to the forum

Here is a workaround that could work for you:

Duplicate a custom field?

I full agree with @Richard_Sather that the custom field library should (almost) always be the solution. But for very rare use-cases where duplicating a Custom Field is needed, I think I’ve found a workaround. There is one case where this seems to be possible to duplicate a field: when this field is locked by one user, then, another user gets a button to copy the field and its options!

Note that, since @Arthur_BEGOU 's post, the field permission settings are now different. But if you are a User (instead of Field Admin or Editor), you should see the option to Copy the field, as shown.
