# How do I import project settings into a new project?

## After creating a project, you can choose to duplicate either all settings from another project or select specific ones

The "Import Settings" option is only available if no settings have been manually adjusted within the project. This is the first step you will complete after the initial project creation. 

Step 1. Go to the newly created project page and click the three-bar icon in the upper right corner. Select "Project Settings"

Step 2. Click on the "Import Settings" button
