Unfortunately there is no supported API other to do that. See https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS174385

Probably you need to write your own class to copy the object. Or you could try to save as the object? https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS59135

not sure if that would work.

Hi,

 

If there is no offical api, you may able to do it via creating your own servlet(Endpoint) class.

If the post was specifically about using a template, then I would say this is resolved since previous posts clearly answer that. There are ways to have a workflow (say in CR workflow) create the CN and other aspects but not via a template. I've done this for years and you can have it create the CN and the change task with default information. Nothing too special but I was not using a template.
