Copying workspaces
You can duplicate a workspace that you already have and modoify the copy to create a new workspace. The workspace fields, templates, business rules, and other custom options are copied into the new workspace. Copying a workspace configuration does not copy the workspace data.
If you want to save the settings of the current workspace without making a copy of it, you can export the settings to an XML template file. For more information, see Exporting-container-configurations.
