Hi @chachi. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To clone a record using the useCreate hook in refine, you can follow these steps. The useCreate hook is used to create new records and can be utilized to clone an existing record by fetching the record data first and then creating a new record with the fetched data. Here is a step-by-step guide: 1. Fetch the Record Data: Use the useOne hook to fetch the data of the record you want to clone. 2. Modify the Data: Change the necessary fields (e.g., the date field). 3. Create a New Record: Use the useCreate hook to create a new record with the modified data. Here is an example code snippet demonstrating this process:

import { useOne, useCreate } from "@refinedev/core";
import { useEffect } from "react";

const CloneRecord = ({ id }) => {
    const { data, isLoading } = useOne({
        resource: "posts",
        id,
    });

    const { mutate } = useCreate({
        resource: "posts",
    });

    useEffect(() => {
        if (data && !isLoading) {
            const clonedData = {
                ...data.data,
                date: new Date().toISOString(), // Modify the date field
            };

            mutate({
                values: clonedData,
            });
        }
    }, [data, isLoading, mutate]);

    return <div>Cloning record...</div>;
};

export default CloneRecord;

import { useOne, useCreate } from "@refinedev/core";
import { useEffect } from "react";

const CloneRecord = ({ id }) => {
    const { data, isLoading } = useOne({
        resource: "posts",
        id,
    });

    const { mutate } = useCreate({
        resource: "posts",
    });

    useEffect(() => {
        if (data && !isLoading) {
            const clonedData = {
                ...data.data,
                date: new Date().toISOString(), // Modify the date field
            };

            mutate({
                values: clonedData,
            });
        }
    }, [data, isLoading, mutate]);

    return <div>Cloning record...</div>;
};

export default CloneRecord;

Explanation: 1. Fetching the Record: The useOne hook is used to fetch the record data by its id. 2. Modifying the Data: Once the data is fetched, the useEffect hook is used to modify the date field of the fetched data. 3. Creating the New Record: The useCreate hook is used to create a new record with the modified data. This approach ensures that you clone the record with the necessary modifications. For more details on the useCreate hook, you can refer to the useCreate documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/data/hooks/use-create/). For more details on the useOne hook, you can refer to the useOne documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/data/hooks/use-one/). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
