Copy card works, but how about paste?

So I can copy (or cut) a card, but there is no paste option? Am I missing something?

I was hoping to move a card to another tab on the same dashboard, but that option doesn’t seem to be available. So I thought I’d give copypaste a go, but for that to work, one would quite obviously need a paste option.

In my case, both tabs are of type “Sections”. I’m running the latest version 2025.1 on a VM running the latest OS version, if that helps to know.

Use the add card button, the copied card will be first in the list.

Hi, unfortunatly only working on the same browser tab

Why not add a dashboard using the same browser tab if needed. I’m not sure what the benefit is to paste to a new browser tab.

You are basically editing the same dashboard via two input points when using multiple tabs.

I mean a different tab on the dashboard, not a browser tab :slight_smile:

Yep that’s it. I must say it’s not intuitive. Kinda feels like an afterthought if I’m honest. But thanks for clearing it up for me :slight_smile:

Btw, in the mean time I found a workaround: just copypaste the generated YAML into a new card. I suppose that’s more or less what copypaste in the GUI does as well.

It should be available…


I often copy the yaml code as it works just as well, and its the way I got used to before the copy and paste stuff.
