Hi,
I want to clone program into other partition,but
 there is error message pup up to suspend clone process, it said the assets are in use or used by other assets. Also we checked the asset that list in error message, it is only using in this program that we want to clone.

Can anyone have idea about it?

Thanks

Make sure you have no reference in any smart campaigns to assets (smart lists, lists, emails, forms, landing pages, etc.) that are contained outside of your local program that you're trying to clone.  If you click on the links to the offending assets, you can usually identify what the issue is that's causing this error.

Hi Ruby,

We are experience the same issue you described, and I was wondering if you ended up finding a solution?  I keep getting the "The following assets are in use or used by other assets:" error.

Thanks,

Tim

Just wanted to chime in here and say that Josh Hill's advice is what fixed our problem cloning across workspaces. All assets that had the error message were using templates in unshared folders. Once all the templates were shared we were able to clone successfully. Hope this helps!

In case you're still struggling with it in 2019, just to confirm Josh Hill's advice is still coreect and saved my time a lot!
