# Create Container from Container Item

This statement is used to create a container which is a copy of a container or an array or object in a container. The new container field is the name of the container to be created.

The text field can contain any of the escape sequences defined in Escape Sequences.

The action test state will be set to true if there are no errors. The test state will always be set to true unless the specified container name is invalid. If the Stop action on error option is enabled, the action will be terminated with an error message in the case of an error.

Example:

    Create container 'sample' from JSON text '{"list":["Hello World","All Done"]}'
    Create container 'sample2' as a copy of the container item at 'sample.list'

The above example will create a container named sample2 which is a copy of the list item in container sample.
