In the window that opens, enter a name for the new chart and click **Save**.
* At the top of the chart, click <!-- diplodoc:svg ![image](../../_assets/console-icons/ellipsis.svg) --><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="16" height="16" fill="none" viewBox="0 0 16 16"><path fill="currentColor" fill-rule="evenodd" d="M3 9.5a1.5 1.5 0 1 0 0-3 1.5 1.5 0 0 0 0 3M9.5 8a1.5 1.5 0 1 1-3 0 1.5 1.5 0 0 1 3 0m5 0a1.5 1.5 0 1 1-3 0 1.5 1.5 0 0 1 3 0" clip-rule="evenodd"/></svg> → <!-- diplodoc:svg ![image](../../_assets/console-icons/copy.svg) --><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="16" height="16" fill="none" viewBox="0 0 16 16"><path fill="currentColor" fill-rule="evenodd" d="M12 2.5H8A1.5 1.5 0 0 0 6.5 4v1H8a3 3 0 0 1 3 3v1.5h1A1.5 1.5 0 0 0 13.5 8V4A1.5 1.5 0 0 0 12 2.5M11 11h1a3 3 0 0 0 3-3V4a3 3 0 0 0-3-3H8a3 3 0 0 0-3 3v1H4a3 3 0 0 0-3 3v4a3 3 0 0 0 3 3h4a3 3 0 0 0 3-3zM4 6.5h4A1.5 1.5 0 0 1 9.5 8v4A1.5 1.5 0 0 1 8 13.5H4A1.5 1.5 0 0 1 2.5 12V8A1.5 1.5 0 0 1 4 6.5" clip-rule="evenodd"/></svg> **Duplicate**. In the window that opens, enter a name for the new chart and click **Apply**.
* Go to the page of the workbook the chart is in. In the row with the chart, click <!-- diplodoc:svg ![image](../../_assets/console-icons/ellipsis.svg) --><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="16" height="16" fill="none" viewBox="0 0 16 16"><path fill="currentColor" fill-rule="evenodd" d="M3 9.5a1.5 1.5 0 1 0 0-3 1.5 1.5 0 0 0 0 3M9.5 8a1.5 1.5 0 1 1-3 0 1.5 1.5 0 0 1 3 0m5 0a1.5 1.5 0 1 1-3 0 1.5 1.5 0 0 1 3 0" clip-rule="evenodd"/></svg> → <!-- diplodoc:svg ![image](../../_assets/console-icons/copy.svg) --><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="16" height="16" fill="none" viewBox="0 0 16 16"><path fill="currentColor" fill-rule="evenodd" d="M12 2.5H8A1.5 1.5 0 0 0 6.5 4v1H8a3 3 0 0 1 3 3v1.5h1A1.5 1.5 0 0 0 13.5 8V4A1.5 1.5 0 0 0 12 2.5M11 11h1a3 3 0 0 0 3-3V4a3 3 0 0 0-3-3H8a3 3 0 0 0-3 3v1H4a3 3 0 0 0-3 3v4a3 3 0 0 0 3 3h4a3 3 0 0 0 3-3zM4 6.5h4A1.5 1.5 0 0 1 9.5 8v4A1.5 1.5 0 0 1 8 13.5H4A1.5 1.5 0 0 1 2.5 12V8A1.5 1.5 0 0 1 4 6.5" clip-rule="evenodd"/></svg> **Duplicate**.

You can also create a draft of the chart by clicking <!-- diplodoc:svg ![image](../../_assets/console-icons/chevron-down.svg) --><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="16" height="16" fill="none" viewBox="0 0 16 16"><path fill="currentColor" fill-rule="evenodd" d="M2.97 5.47a.75.75 0 0 1 1.06 0L8 9.44l3.97-3.97a.75.75 0 1 1 1.06 1.06l-4.5 4.5a.75.75 0 0 1-1.06 0l-4.5-4.5a.75.75 0 0 1 0-1.06" clip-rule="evenodd"/></svg> → **Save as draft** in the top-right corner of the chart.
