@janwadebock Thanks for the feedback.
Which version of Metabase are you using? This may be related to recent changes Metabase made in their API

@janwadebock It should work fine now.
Please upgrade to the new version (pip install --upgrade metabase_api) and test it out.
Also check the release notes regarding the changes to copy_collection function.
