I've seen the API1/adddb and API2/createdb functions for creating new databases. What about cloning an existing database? E.g. I have a model database that I want to be able to clone for new customers. Is there a way to do that programmatically via the API? (I'm using PHP in case it makes any difference.) Thanks for any help or suggestions!
Hello 
We don't offer any API functions that allow you to clone or copy an existing database, but you are welcome to submit a feature request for this via:

In the meantime, you could develop a script that copies/clones the database through the MySQL command line and have it run as a post account creation script hook:

Thank you.
