To create a copy of an existing Box Hub, call the POST /2.0/hubs/{hub_id}/copy endpoint with the source hub ID and optional new title and description. The original hub is not modified.
Box Hubs endpoints require the box-version: 2025.0 header. If you omit this header, the API returns a 400 error with the message Missing required box-version header. Supported API versions: [2025.0]. For more information, see Box API versioning strategy.

     -d '{
       "title": "HR Hub (Copy)",
       "description": "Copy of the HR hub for a new region."

Replace HUB_ID with the source hub ID. Request body fields are optional. If you omit the title parameter, the API uses a default one. A successful response returns the new Hub object.
