Hello Team, I'd like to duplicate a workbook with over 10+ Sheets - why is this not possible? Could you duplicate this Workbook for me please? Thank you!

The limitation you're encountering is related to our "Write to Other Table" feature, which has a maximum of 10 tables connected across workbooks. This constraint may affect workbook duplication when there are complex table connections. I cannot duplicate the workbook for you, but you can work around this by duplicating individual tables. When you duplicate tables, only the header structure is copied - the data isn't transferred automatically. To duplicate a table: click the table title on the top left and select "Duplicate table." If you need to preserve data, use the "write to table" integration to map existing data fields to your new table columns.

The write to other Table Integration in the 10+ Table Workbook is not connected to across 10 Tables - so if that is the limiting factor, it should still be possible.

Hi there! Currently, Clay has a limit of 10 tables per workbook when it comes to duplication. If your workbook contains more than 10 tables, you'll see an error message preventing the duplication. We understand this limitation can be frustrating, especially for complex workflows, and it's something our product team is actively working to improve. The current restriction is somewhat arbitrary since we're not actually duplicating the underlying records, just the table structures and relationships. In the meantime, here are a couple of options: ** Break your workflow into smaller workbooks with 10 or fewer tables each ** Manually recreate the essential tables in a new workbook * Duplicate individual tables and move them between workbooks using our table move function We really appreciate your feedback on this - it helps us prioritize improvements that matter most to our users. If you have a specific use case that requires duplicating larger workbooks, please let us know the details as it helps inform our development roadmap. Thanks for your patience as we work to enhance this feature!
