Please add the ability to duplicate an entire interface group (along with all the interfaces contained within it) to create another interface group.

For example, I have an HR base where Iโ€™m tracking payroll, benefits, and vacation data. I would like to have separate interface groups for each employee that only they can see (for example, the interface group for one employee could be named, โ€œPayroll & Benefits for John Doe"). Then each group would contain standard individual interfaces such as, โ€œPayroll Information,โ€ โ€œVacation Info & Balance,โ€ โ€œHealth & Insurance Benefits Information,โ€ etc, that the employee could select from. When we hire a new employee, we would simply go to the โ€œtemplateโ€ interface group, duplicate it, then rename it with the new employeeโ€™s name. Then all I have to do is change the filter value for each newly duplicated interface to point to the new employee, then I could share a read-only the interface group link to that new employee.

As it is right now, we have to manually re-create every interface in every interface group for every employee.

I have to believe there are many other use cases like this.

Jonathan, you are correct. We need this feature as well for management.

It would also be great to have a "primary template" of an interface that we could maintain/update and then publish to all the copies. cc: @Lisa_Poirier_Fu
