Copy an Optimizer action trick

ThuenerA

You've built your Optimizer model with an objective and many constraints and variables, and now you want to test some changes to it. Where is the copying button?

Many users ask for copying capability, and we're actively working to improve the user experience. However, you can already copy an action using the modeling interface.

Let me show you…

I want to copy this Find Optimum Optimizer Action:

First, you create a new Optimizer action and fill the required fields with any data:

Then copy the action cell for the original model (Find Optimum):

You should see the "Copied to clipboard" pop-up appear in the top-right corner.

Now you just need to paste it into the new Duplicate action you created and voilá ✨

We're developing an even better solution that will let you duplicate actions directly. Until then, I hope this tip helps you copy your Optimizer models.
