Permissions Required
We want to make sure that project spaces are protected in receiving copied applications only from approved users.
As such, to copy an application, you will need to have Web Users permissions to manage Apps (see below) in the project that you are copying the application to. If the project space that you are copying to uses locations, you will need to have Locations configured as well.
