Error when using the Duplicate Dashboard function

I am consistently receving errors when duplicating a dashboard.

 

I've tried this is several workspaces (the new kind) with several dashboards, simple to complex.

 

None are duplicated.

 

The error message is short & sweet: "Error duplicating dashboard".

I'm a bit late with a status report, but there is good news. The dashboard copy function is working reliably in 2020.

 

One pragmatic note: my workaround was to simply pin each tile from the source dashboard to the "backup" dashboard, one at a time. Realistically, there are rarely more than a dozen tiles on a dashboard.

 

I do find it annoying there is no native backup capability, nor a versioning function. As a developer, a great deal of my time involves making mistakes, I just don't know when or where until they happen <g>
