Duplicate an automation
Reuse a working automation for your next campaign in two clicks — no rebuilding.
Running the same campaign on a new post used to mean rebuilding the whole automation by hand. Duplicate copies everything that worked — keyword, messages, buttons, email capture — so you only choose where it runs.
How to duplicate
- 1
Find the automation
On the Automations page, click the copy icon next to the automation you want to reuse. - 2
Pick the posts
A new automation opens with all settings pre-filled. Only the post selection is empty — choose the post(s) for the new campaign (or All posts / Next post). - 3
Adjust and save
Tweak anything you like — keyword, message, buttons — then save. The original stays untouched and keeps running.
What gets copied (and what isn't)
- Copied: automation type, keywords, DM and comment-reply messages (including their AI-generated variations — nothing is regenerated unless you edit the text), action buttons, email capture, follow requirement, AI reply settings, and language.
- Not copied: the post selection (you choose fresh), statistics, and any "waiting for next post" state.
- Keep in mind: two active automations can't use the same keyword on the same posts — Komently will warn you if the copy would clash with the original.
When it shines
- Weekly campaigns — same "comment GUIDE" funnel, new reel every week.
- Scheduled posts — after a Next post automation attaches, duplicate it and choose Next post again for the following scheduled post.
- Second account — copy a proven setup to another connected Instagram account or Facebook page.
- Safe experiments — duplicate, change the DM copy, and compare results without touching the original.
