If you wish to create a new dashboard based on an existing dashboard then you can do this by cloning the existing dashboard. When you clone a dashboard all of its content will be recreated in the new dashboard, including any blocks that have been added to it, and any audience assignments.
To clone a dashboard, follow these steps:
Go to Quick-access menu > Navigation > Dashboards to view all dashboards.
Click the icon of two sheets of paper (

The new dashboard can now be edited using the cog icon (
