## Copy to Clipboard not Working
If the copy to clipboard feature (either under Config --> Export, or Item --> Copy URL) isn't functioning as expected, first check the browser console. If you see `TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'writeText')` then this feature is not supported by your browser.
The most common reason for this, is if you not running the app over HTTPS. Copying to the clipboard requires the app to be running in a secure origin / aka have valid HTTPS cert. You can read more about this [here](https://stackoverflow.com/a/71876238/979052).
As a workaround, you could either:
- Highlight the text and copy / <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>C</kbd>
- Or setup SSL - [here's a guide](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/docs/management.md#ssl-certificates) on doing so
