    About this task

    Duplicate a response when you want to modify a response slightly while preserving the unmodified version, such as seeing what the response looks like with a different group-by value. You could also duplicate a response and refresh only one version, to compare the old and new values.

    Copy a response when you want to share only a response, not the whole exploration, with another user. Copy the response to an existing exploration that the user can access, or copy it to a new exploration and share that exploration with the user. You can use this function to give yourself an editable version of the response in an exploration you own.
