When you clone, you copy the details of an existing loop-based campaign into a new campaign.

## Before you start

- You need the permission **Loop-based Campaigns** at the **Manage** level, see [Access and permissions](https://help.cyreen.de/en/cap-explorer/benutzer-und-zugang/zugriff-und-rechte.md). You can clone campaigns of your company, also completed ones.
- Have the visual for the new campaign ready. The visuals are not copied when you clone. The file requirements are in [Visual specifications](https://help.cyreen.de/en/cap-explorer/kampagnen/visual-spezifikationen.md).
- Start and end are copied if they are today or later. If a date is in the past, choose a new one.

## Steps

1. **Click the clone icon**

   In the **Loop-based Campaigns** list, find the template and click **Clone** in the **Action** column.

## Problems?

**A store is missing in the copy.** Stores are only copied if they are still available for the new run time. Choose another store in the stores step.

**The file cannot be uploaded.** Check format, size and file name against the [Visual specifications](https://help.cyreen.de/en/cap-explorer/kampagnen/visual-spezifikationen.md).
