#### Copying fields

Often times when working on your content model, you might want to create a field on one content type that should be configured exactly like on another content type. It should have the same required, localization, and validation configuration. Unfortunately, Contentful currently does not support copying fields between content types. Wouldn't it be super useful to have a master content type that contains pre-configured fields that you can just copy over to a new content type you're working on? Now you can.

``bash
> contentful-utils copy-fields slug title \
--source blogPost \
--target page \
--config ~/Desktop/contentful-config.json
`

This will copy the fields slug and title from your content type blogPost to the content type page, using access credentials and other parameters stored inside ~/Desktop/contentful-config.json.

#### Deleting fields

Deleting fields from a content type can be a bit tedious on Contentful. When doing this from the frontend, you have to first disable the field in the editor and in responses, save the content type, delete the field and save, again. This takes precious time, when during an exploratory phase you might not need to be this cautious. Now you can delete a field with just one command.

`bash
> contentful-utils delete-fields slug \
--target page \
--config ~/Desktop/contentful-config.json
`

This will copy the field slug from your content type blogPost to the content type page, using access credentials and other parameters stored inside ~/Desktop/contentful-config.json.
