Copy and paste is one of the fastest ways to move information into and around Dashpivot.
This article outlines all areas where copy and paste is supported.
📁 Bulk folder creation
You can paste a list of folder names (including nested lists), and Dashpivot will automatically create the full folder structure for you (up to 100 folders).
👉 Great for:
Setting up new projects
Creating team folder structures
Replicating workspace structures
✏️ Template Editor
Prefilled table creation
Paste data directly into Prefilled Tables to speed up template creation for checklists, registers, and structured documents.
Yes/No field creation
Quickly set up yes/no fields by copying and pasting data in bulk from an Excel spreadsheet or document.
✨ Form Tables
Paste into a Default Table
Copy and paste data from external sources into a Default Table. Supported field types include:
Text
Numbers
Time
Date
Manually typed list fields
Copy a full Default Table
You can copy all cell contents from one Dashpivot Default Table and paste them into another form.
Copy or clear a column
You can copy the contents of any column in a Default or Prefilled Table and paste it into another column — or clear all data from a column in a single click.
👉 Great for:
Duplicating column data within or between tables without retyping
Clearing a column to start fresh without deleting row by row
How it works:
Copy column — click the column header menu and select Copy column content. Use Ctrl+V (or Cmd+V on Mac) to paste into another column.
Clear column — click the column header menu and select Clear column to delete all data in that column at once.
Supported cell types: Number, Text, Prefilled Text, Formula, Date, Time, Yes/No, and List. Other cell types will paste as blank.
Copy row content
You can copy an entire row's content in a Default or Prefilled Table and paste it into another row — without retyping data across columns.
👉 Great for:
Transferring row data within a table without having to retype each cell
Populating a new row using an existing row as a starting point
How it works
Copy row — hover over the row, click the three dots menu on the left-hand side, and select Copy row content.
Paste row — hover over the destination row, just Ctrl+V / Cmd+V to paste or right-click on the destination row → Paste
