Duplicating a Heatmap is a great way to add a new snapshot to the same page. This option will use all the current settings for the Heatmap you are duplicating. If you have updated your page content, this is the recommended practice for capturing the new data (assuming, of course, you already had a snapshot of the page).
You can only have one active Heatmap per page/device. If you duplicate a ‘running’ snapshot, the existing Heatmap status will change to ‘completed’. Your duplicate snapshot will become the active Heatmap for the page.
Duplicating a Heatmap is only available for snapshots added through the dashboard. Heatmaps added using Page Camera will not have this option.
Duplicating a Heatmap – Step by Step
Here is a recommended process to help you get started.
Locate the Heatmap you wish to duplicate, then click the gear symbol.
From the drop-down list, select Duplicate this Heatmap.
A new window will appear asking you to create a unique name for your Heatmap. This will allow you to tell it apart from your original snapshot on your dashboard. If you choose not to rename your snapshot, the word COPY will be automatically added to the end of the snapshot name.
Click Save when finished.
You will be returned to your dashboard, where your duplicate Heatmap will now show as running.
