Duplicate Writing Document

POST
/api/writing/documents/{document_id}/duplicate

📑 Create an independent copy of an existing document.

Unlike POST /documents/{id}/forks (which creates a fork branch with parent lineage so the user can compare/promote it later), duplicate produces a fresh standalone document with no relationship to the source — same content, same tags, same document_type, suffixed ” (Copy)” by default. The new document goes into the source’s folder when present.

Path Parameters:

  • document_id: Source document to copy.

Form Parameters:

  • new_title: Optional override for the new title. Defaults to "<source title> (Copy)".

Returns:

  • document_id: ID of the newly created copy.
  • message: Success confirmation.

Raises:

  • HTTPException 404: If the source document is not found, trashed, or belongs to a different project.
  • HTTPException 500: If duplication fails.
