Cloning creates a new Firepanel project based on an existing one, copying its content type definitions, settings, and configuration. Collection data is not copied.
When to Clone
- You want a staging environment that mirrors your production project
- You're setting up a new Firebase project with the same schema structure
- You want to replicate roles and settings without starting from scratch
Steps
1
Open project options
From the Projects page, find the project you want to clone. Click the options menu (⋮) on the project card.
2
Select Clone
Click Clone Project from the dropdown menu.
3
Name the new project
Enter a name for the cloned project, then click Clone.
4
Connect Firebase credentials
The clone wizard will prompt you to upload a Firebase service account key for the new Firebase project. Follow the same steps as creating a new project.
