re: If only there was such an action as Group>Duplicate. Anyone know of a trick or extension? I can't find anything.

Not that I'm aware of I'm afraid.  Could try scripting something to help you with it the field creation maybe?  You'd still need to manually set up the form though

Hi @TheTimeSavingCo  thanks for sharing this information 

I would also find it extremely useful if this feature existed!

Airtable’s forms won’t actually let you duplicate anything — you can’t duplicate groups of fields, nor can you duplicate individual fields themselves.

If you’re looking to duplicate elements on your form, your #1 best bet is to use Fillout’s advanced forms for Airtable.

Fillout is 100% free, and it offers hundreds of features that Airtable’s native forms don’t offer, including:

• The ability to duplicate individual fields. Just click on a field and choose the duplicate icon.
   
• The ability to duplicate groups of fields by copying-and-pasting multiple fields. Just hold down the shift key to select multiple fields simultaneously, then press command-C (Mac) or control-C (Windows) on your keyboard to copy the group of fields. Then press command-V (Mac) or control-V (Windows) to paste the group of fields.
   
• The ability to create a multi-page form, with the ability to duplicate entire pages.
   
• The ability to move groups of fields from one page onto another page. Just hold down the shift key to select multiple fields, and then click on the icon to move them onto another page.

Fillout also offer hundreds of other advanced Airtable features as well, such as the ability to update Airtable records using a form, create brand new linked records on a form, display Airtable lookup fields on forms, collect signatures on your form, control access to a form via SSO or email domains, perform math or other live calculations on your forms, accept payments on forms, and much more.

I show how to use a few of the advanced features of Fillout on these 2 Airtable podcast episodes:

• Using Fillout to create an eSignature approval process with PDF file creation.
• Using Fillout to create an order entry form with line items.

Hope this helps!
