"Leveraging the Python API to clone content from one Web GIS to another can be thought of as _\"propagating content that appears to be a copy of the original content.\"_. Given all the different content and item types, possible Enterprise configurations, potential ArcGIS Online Organization arrangements, security considerations, and item dependencies the [`clone_items()`]((https://developers.arcgis.com/python/api-reference/arcgis.gis.toc.html#arcgis.gis.ContentManager.clone_items)) function aims to _propagate_ an exact duplicate of one item with all its uses and functionality from an original portal to a second portal, but there may be circumstances that lead the clone to come close but not quite produce an identical copy. In addition, the variety of means for publishing items creates varying possibilities for supported, related, or source items created during the publishing process. The relationship between any supported, related, or source items must be considered when cloning an item. For example, the overwrite functionality will not be available on cloned hosted feature layer items, because they do not have a source document from which they were published. The FAQ [here](https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/reference/faq.htm#DELETE_SRC) provides important information regarding source items in ArcGIS Online. However, given our education on `cloning`, we now know that cloning an item produces a second item which appears - but may not be identical to the original. It's important to temper expectations when thinking about the Python API `clone_items()` function. There may be times items will not migrate as expected. \n",
