Clone Existing Project in Workfront Using Fusion

Hello,

I am hoping this will be a simple one and someone can help.

I need to copy an existing Project using Fusion but not sure which module is best to use.
I will have a Typehead field that holds the Project name, so I should be able to get the ID from there using a Parse JSON module.

Hope someone can help, thanks in advance!

    • clearProgress
    • clearApprovers
    • clearCustomData
    • clearTimedNotifications
    • clearDocuments
    • clearExpenses
    • clearPredecessors
    • clearPermissions
    • clearBudgetedHours

Body

updates={"name":"{the name of the new project}","status":"{the status of the new project}"}

 

 

 

The resulting bundle :
