### Are you using our SaaS platform ([Baserow.io](http://Baserow.io)) or self-hosting Baserow?

Self-hosted

### What do you need help with?

I cannot copy from one cell into another or multiple cells into another row with the same fields. Is this an option that should work? Is this a setting that needs to be enabled or only available to premium users? on baserow 2.0.6

depends on what fields you’re trying to copy - single/multi select A → single/multi select B - will not work (workaround → go through a purely text field).  
If the “target” field for paste is a text field, this should work.

That said - I sometimes encounter an issue where copy-paste becomes impossible - page refresh helps, if not - clear cache, but I have not yet figured out the exact conditions to reproduce the issue consistently.

One more thing - if you deploy in docker desktop, there may be an issue with http (no ssl certificate) and your browser security settings which may prevent copy-paste
