Enable Data Copy/Paste Collections/Tables on Devtools #241

Description

@jipspaul

I’d like a “Copy Data” button in the database devtools that allows me to:
• Select specific documents/rows or entire collections/tables
• Copy the data to clipboard in a structured format
• Paste the data into another collection/table (same project or different project)
• Optionally transform field names or structure during paste
• Preserve relationships and references where possible
This would work similarly to spreadsheet copy/paste functionality but maintain database-specific data types and structures.
Describe alternatives you’ve considered
• Using export/import through CSV/JSON files (cumbersome for quick operations)
• Writing custom migration scripts (requires development time for simple tasks)
• Using third-party database management tools (adds external dependencies)
• Manual copying via API calls (time-consuming and requires coding)

Thanks a lot for your works, it s amazing !
