I have a backup Glide Table.  
If i copy 500 rows and paste it to the backup table, it only pastes to the available empty rows.  
Hence I would have to manually click 500 new rows then paste.

Whats the best way to backup 1 table into a backup table?

If it’s a backup, wouldn’t it be better to store it _outside_ of Glide?  
I’d suggest using the built in export function that allows you to export the contents of any table.

If its Glide Table, then I guess, just duplicating and renaming it will be sufficient. And yes, additionally, I would export it as well as @Darren_Murphy suggested.
