    Pourquoi et quand exécuter cette tâche

    You can copy a custom action that you created to give it a new name or move it to another application scope. The new action has the same action properties, inputs, steps, and outputs as the source action.

    You can't copy the default actions created by ServiceNow, Inc., nor can you copy actions that have a protection policy. You must have write access to an action to copy it.

      If the Copy action option is not visible, then you don't have permission to copy the action. This could be because the action has a protection policy or because you lack the necessary user role or developer permissions.
