# Universal Copy/Paste

With your keyboard, copy any object that can be imported with Suitcase and paste it elsewhere, in any database.

- ↔️**Paste between databases:** You can copy an object in one database (your production environment, say) and paste it in another (your test environment).
- 🌱 **Paste in new contexts:** You can copy objects and paste them into acceptable parent objects.****For example, pasting a query in a Deliver mailing will import it as a new recipient list.

## Copying

Go to anything in Slate that can be imported with Suitcase, like:

- Application Configurations
- Application Logic
- Bots
- Components
- Deliver Mailings
- Files
- Forms, including:
  - Form Communications
  - Form Logic
  - Form Rules
- Message Mailings
- Message Templates
- Portals
- Queries
- Reports
- Rules
- Slate Scholar Classroom Courses
- Source Formats
- Trips

Press `ctrl + c` or `cmd + c`. The object is copied to your clipboard.
