Hi Gliders!  
I am trying to make a copy of the App by duplicating it first with copying data (# 1 on screenshot), then transferring to another team (# 2 on screeshot below).

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/f/7/f749c6afc597e2f51ec2415f5bc70f12a7782169.png)  
But when i open the created copy, i see there are the same data inside - native tables and GS.

Why the same data still there? Above i duplicated it… And how can i make the copy of (App+Data) to do not have the acces from Copy App to the original Data?  
Thank you in advance

First thing is that it’s important to understand the difference between Basic and Computed columns. Maybe you already do, but it’s vital in this context so I’ll explain it anyway.
