Copying a zone keeps the name of the zone managed folders

GeoGeo

Hi,

I am using currently dss version 13.4.0.

When I copy a flow zone A, the names of the managed folders inside zone A are the same as the ones in the copy zone B, though their hash ids differ.

The hash id I am talking about is obtained in python language with dataiku.Folder("ProjectKey.NameOfFolder").get_id()

It is somewhat confusing, since it is not possible to create a managed folder with a name that is already taken in the same flow, by using the interface.

Please find below the copy feature I am talking about:

Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong here ?

Thank you for yout time.

Technically a bug since the UI doesn't let you create folders of the same name even though Dataiku internally uses the Folder ID not the folder name to differentiate them. The dataiku.Folder() method takes folder name as a parameter so this means you can't get a handle for the new folder.

If it bothers you that much you can easily rename the folders using the Rename function on the right pane. But you should probably report it to Dataiku Support so they are awere of it.
