Summary

Duplicating a page in Notion lets you create an exact copy of any page, including all its sub-pages and content, without rebuilding it from scratch. This is useful for reusing layouts, building templates, or saving a version of a page before making major edits.

Step-by-step guide

  1. Step 1

    Open the Page You Want to Copy

    Navigate to the page in your sidebar and click it to open the full view. Make sure you're on the exact page you want duplicated, since this action will copy the page along with every sub-page and block nested inside it.

  2. Step 2

    Click the ••• Menu in the Top-Right Corner

    At the top of the open page, click the three-dot ••• icon next to the Share button. This opens a menu with page-level actions like Copy link, Duplicate, Move to, and Version history.

  3. Step 3

    Select Duplicate

    Choose Duplicate from the dropdown list. Notion instantly creates a full copy of the page, opening the copy and listing it just above the original in the same parent location within your sidebar. Keyboard shortcut: ⌘ + D on Mac or Ctrl + D on Windows.

  4. Step 4

    Rename Your Duplicated Page

    The new copy opens with '(1)' added to the end of the title. Click the title text at the top of the page and type a new name so you can tell it apart from the source page.

  5. Step 5

    Duplicate a Page from the Sidebar

    As a shortcut, right-click any page name directly in the left sidebar instead of opening it first. Select Duplicate from the context menu, and Notion creates the copy in place without ever opening the page itself.

Why this matters

You've spent an hour building the perfect project tracker and now need the same layout for three new clients. Instead of recreating every database and section by hand, duplicating the page gives you an identical starting point in seconds, so you can rename it and get straight to work.

    Yes. Duplicating a page copies its content, including nested blocks, so the copy keeps the original's structure.

  • Can I duplicate a page directly into a different workspace?

    Duplicate first, then use Move to in the ••• Actions menu to relocate the copy.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut for duplicating a page?

    Yes. Press ⌘ + D on Mac or Ctrl + D on Windows, or choose Duplicate from the ••• menu or the sidebar right-click menu.

    Duplicating a page that holds a database copies the database with it.
