Just to ensure I'm using the jargon correctly, I believe an 'Interface' is a groups of 'Pages' -- with that out of the way, I wonder if it would be relatively 'low hanging fruit' to offer the ability to move a Page to another Interface within the same Base? Why would you want to do this?

The Enterprise plan has granular permissions that control which Interfaces can be accessed by which users/groups. A Page in an interface might be useful to multiple groups, but that doesn't mean I want multiple groups to have access to the entire Interface. This results in having to re-create Pages in different Interfaces that have the appropriate permission settings.

A function to move a Page to a different Interface (within the same Base of course) would be a significant 'quality of life' improvement and time-saver in this situation. It could live in the page's '...' menu (see screenshot)

Admittedly, I've created pages in the wrong Interface group before and it's quite frustrating that I have to completely scrap and start over. +1 to being able to move pages to other Interface groups within the same base.

Edit/update: Perhaps I missed it before, but the ability to "Duplicate" an Interface page to another Interface Group is perfectly fine workaround. This serves the same purpose as a "Move" would. Thanks Airtable team for making this feature.

Oct 2024, still not able to move pages between interfaces?

Duplicating an entire interface is not the same as moving, because one might have pages in the interface. Not sure why this is so difficult to do.

I'm also a little surprised this functionality doesn't exist.

Use case: I created one interface at the start of my project to select a CRM. It contained things like MOCHAs, personas, timelines, software options, etc. It became clear that it was important to have more granular pages about data such as where data is being collected, data points multiple teams would need, etc. I made a new interface for data. However, I have some pages now stuck in the original interface that I'd prefer not to duplicate, but I guess I will!
