Expanding your Waitwhile account with more locations is quite straightforward. You can either choose to create an entirely new location from scratch, or duplicate an existing one, using it as a template for the new location.

Add a new location from scratch

To add a new location from scratch, simply click Add location in the top right corner on the Locations page, and then follow the steps below.

  1. Fill out the Location name. You can change or update this later.

  2. You can choose to use the settings and properties from other locations. We will skip this option for now, but you can see more about duplicating a location down below.

  3. If you have any labels set up, you can choose to include them. You can also create new labels and add them to your location by clicking Add label and following the instructions in Managing labels.

  4. Click Add in the top right corner once all fields have been filled out. Your location will now show up in the list of locations.

Duplicate an existing location

To make adding more locations even easier, you have the option to start with a duplicate of an already existing location. You can either do this by following steps 1 and 2 from above, or you can do it from the Locations page.

To get started, click More actions on the location that you want to duplicate, then select Duplicate.

On the Duplication location page, follow these steps:

  1. Select a name for the location in New location name.

  2. Choose which properties you want included when duplicating. These include:

    1. Users: All users with access to the location that is being duplicated will have access to the new location as well.

    2. Labels: All labels and values that are assigned to the old location will be assigned to the new location as well.

    3. Resources: Resources can be shared with or copied to the new location.

      1. Sharing means that both locations will have access to these resources and any changes to them will be reflected on both locations.

      2. Copying the resources means that new, unique instances of them will be created for the new location. These will then exist separately from the original resources and any changes to them will have no impact on the other ones.

    4. Services: Services can also be shared with or copied to the new location.

      1. Sharing means that both locations will have access to these services, and any changes to them will be reflected on both locations.

      2. Copying the services means that new, unique instances of them will be created for the new location. These will then exist separately from the original services and any changes to them will have no impact on the other ones.

    5. Input fields: Lastly, your input fields can also be shared with or copied to the new location.

      1. Sharing means that both locations will have access to these input fields and any changes to them will be reflected on both locations.

      2. Copying the input fields means that new, unique instances of them will be created for the new location. These will then exist separately from the original input fields and any changes to them will have no impact on the other ones.

  3. Click Duplicate to start creating the new location. It will then show up in your list of locations.
