Summary20196: Lost Ability to Copy Surveys intuitively
Description

Since the last update, we have lost the ability to copy previous surveys and create our own survey ID's

Previously, when you created a survey, the next screen had the option to Create New, Import, Copy.
We use this everyday, its very useful to have a "template" survey setup which you copy each time. Now i have to setup each one manually.

I have found the functionality under the import drop down, but this is not intuitive. You have Import on the drop down menu, just need to add copy survey - and anchor it to the copy tab.

Steps To Reproduce

Pretty Obvious.

Hi @marcgold! I suppose you are talking about the purple plus button in the left part of the top navigation. This dropdown will never have copy as an option. To copy the survey you can use 3-dot menu as in screenshots to do so. Right now copy doesn't get you to the proper tab, but we are working on new feature which will do so (it will be a modal).
