to be honest, the use case is mostly convenience
when people train ~5000+ experiments, all saved in few sub folders with long string as experiment name

before publishing a paper for example, we want to move copy small numbers of successful training to separate location and share it with other colleagues/management

I'd guess the alternative can be
changing the name of the successful training under the existing sub folder
using move instead of clone
anything else?

Sounds about right. You can also create reports from the best experiments and then reference the models via the report as well

Hi @<1523701842515595264:profile|PleasantOwl46> , I'm afraid that such a capability doesn't really exist in ClearML. You could technically populate an experiment using the API.

I'm however curious - what is your use case for this?
