Question

Microsoft Loop: Create a template / duplicate pages including subpages

Anonymous

Hello

We are in the process of switching from OneNote to Loop for our internal project notes/documentation:

We intend to create a template of a page with lots of subpages, which is then used for every new project.
Apparently it is only possible to create a template or duplicate from a single page.
In our opinion this would be an important basic functionality, which would be widely used if available.

-> Is it planned to implement this feature in one of the next releases?

-> Is there another way to do it (without having to manually click on every subpage and duplicate it)?

Many thanks in advance.

Chris

When trying to Duplicate a page that has subpages, the "duplicate" option is greyed out, not allowing to duplicate.

Dear Sean

Thanks for getting back on this. I assume you are describing to manually duplicate each subpage? This is not really a workaround and exactly what we are trying to prevent as it is too time consuming.

In case MS is not planning to implement this feature in a future release; is there a workaround available by accessing the Loop workspace with a SW script or also Power Automate?
There is a Power Automate handle available for Loop but with very limited functionality.

Best regards

Chris

We are in the same position as the OP. This would be essential if we are to transfer over from OneNote.

We would also find this feature incredibly valuable, as the current process is very time consuming and preventing us from using loop more. I hope that Microsoft has plans to implement this in the future.

Dear Chris,

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft community. We are delighted to offer our assistance.

Currently, Microsoft Loop only allows creating a template or duplicating a single page. However, I can suggest a workaround for your situation. You can create a new page with all the subpages you need, then duplicate that page for each new project. Once you have duplicated the page, you can delete any subpages that are not relevant to the new project. This will save you time compared to manually creating each subpage.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation! Have a great day.

Sincerely,
