About this task

Duplicate the AI agents to do the following tasks:

• Duplicate the record.
• Disallow any AI agents with existing names.

Custom columns, such as the Tools and Knowledge sources, Status, and a column with the Duplicate icon () are available for the AI agents list.

Note:

The duplicated AI Agents use the same tools as the original agent and modifying the agent tools in the duplicated AI agent affects the agent tools in the original AI agent. To use the tools in a duplicated AI agent, you can either use the duplicated agent tools without making changes to them or add a new tool.”

Procedure

1. Navigate to All > AI Agent Studio > Create and manage > AI agents and open the AI agents list in AI Agent Studio.
2. Duplicate the AI agent from either the Manage agentic workflows and AI agents page or the AI agent form.

3. Create a copy of the AI agent with the same information from the original AI agent's record by selecting Duplicate.
   Note:

   The name of the duplicated AI agent is appended with the suffix (Copy) so that you can clearly identify the duplicated AI agent from the original AI agent. For example, Knowledge Article Agent (Copy). You can rename the duplicated AI agent and also edit the other information that is duplicated from the original AI agent.
4. After editing the details in the Describe and instruct section, select Save and continue.
