Import page from multipage app into another multipage app

  • Goal: I'm trying to copy a page from one multipage app to another, but I get This app is a multipage app. Please select a non-multipage app to import.

  • Details: The multipage app I'm trying to copy from wasn't supposed to be a multipage app (it only has one page). Converting it to a single page app and then importing it would also work (but don't think that's possible). Or the ability to convert a module to a page in a multipage app would be another alternative (but also don't think that's possible).

Just turning the page into a module will be my plan B, but would rather not do that.

Hello Philip, and welcome to the Retool community! :wave:

You are correct that the options you laid out are not currently possible. We have active requests in process for:

  1. Importing a page from a multipage app
  2. Exporting a page out of a multipage to a single app
  3. Importing a module as a page

I think short of recreating your page from scratch as a new page in the intended multipage, your proposed idea of exporting the multipage app with your single page as JSON and then importing into a module is the best option.

Agree that it is not ideal though, and I will add your case on to the request for the "importing a page from a multipage app".
