Create or copy a site
Learn to create or copy a site in Productsup and automatically transfer your products, Product Identifier settings, export destinations, and more to a new site.
Introduction
Every site belongs to a project and can only exist once. A site consists of one set of imported products that you can export as many times as necessary.
Note
You can sort sites into specific projects to efficiently manage and organize them. Similar to projects, you can organize your sites per country, brand, etc.
When creating a site, you have two options:
Create a new site and manually set it up from scratch.
Copy a site and reuse its settings.
Copying a site saves time and reduces the probability of errors caused by configuring sites manually. Productsup copies the following items from the source site:
Data sources and Product Identifier settings from Data Sources
Export channels from Exports A/B
Attribute connections and rule boxes from Dataflow
Product segments from Data View
Data service settings from Data Services
Tracking settings from Tracking
All lists from Lists shared on the site level
ROI rules from ROI Strategy
Site tags from Settings
Additionally, you can choose to copy:
Export destinations from Exports A/B
Scheduling and triggering settings from Data Sources
Note
Productsup doesn't copy the following:
Tracking data - The platform copies tracking settings into the new site, but all tracking data is only available in the source site.
ROI rules based on tracking KPIs, such as clicks and orders, don't work in the new site.
Lists - The availability of lists shared on the project and account level depends on where your new site exists. If the new site exists in the same project or account as the source site, your new site gets all lists shared in that project or account, respectively.
If you delete a list shared on the project or account level from the source site, all sites in the same project or account lose access to it.
You can use the Bulk Option feature to copy multiple sites at once. See Bulk Operations.

Note
If you copy a site with its export destinations, the destinations of both the source and the new site have the same settings, such as filenames, folders, buckets, etc.
The Productsup Server destination is the only destination that is always unique and gets a new link and filename when you copy it.
To copy all scheduling and triggering settings from the source site and let the new site use the same conditions for importing and processing data, select On in Copy with Scheduling & Triggering.
Select Copy Selected Site.
