# Copy / Paste component settings

## Overview

The Avonni Components Package comes with a handy copy/paste feature. This lets you effortlessly copy settings from one component and apply them to another. It makes setting up components faster and easier, helping you avoid mistakes. This feature is especially useful for quickly creating similar screen flows by replicating settings across components.

## Step-by-Step Guide

1. **Select the component** whose configuration you want to copy by clicking on it.
2. Click on **Copy** from the dropdown menu located next to the "Open Component Builder" button
3. **Drag another same component** into your screen flow
4. Click on **Paste** from the dropdown menu located next to the "Open Component Builder" button
5. Confirm to paste your previously copied inputVariables configuration into this component.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.avonnicomponents.com/flow/component-builder/layout-and-customization/copy-paste-component-settings.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
