Easy way to copy a homepage to other users?

[alliej428]

Hi-

I'm looking to copy a homepage from one user, to multiple users.   Basically, one of our team leads created a homepage with specific gauges, filters, etc, and they'd like it to show up for a certain group of users in IT.   Is there a way to do this?   I've been struggling trying to figure out if this can be done.  

Thanks!

Well if you're talking about copying the homepage from one user to multiple users in the same instance(i.e. making it a default homepage for a large number of people,which is not technically copying) it's pretty simple you'll just need to have the proper rights and will have to simply edit the homepage/homepage roles for different users in the homepage admin application :

But if you're talking about copying the homepage for users between different instances then there's no easy way and simply copying won't be possible for that you'll need to export and import the complete update set from your team leads instance. Just like this :

Thank you!   I discovered my issue was hitting 'insert and stay' vs 'update'.   When I did insert and stay, it cleared out the content.
