I created a lot of custom fields for a CPT called 'entries'

Now I am creating another CPT called 'finalists' for the same website and I would like to use the same custom fields.
Is there a way to duplicate them?

Or do I need to create them again?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

When you try to add new custom field and click on "Add New Field" button from your custom field group, it will offer you popuip what type of field you want to create, with that popup you will see a button "Choose from previously created fields" from where you can add the existing fields you created.

No that's not what I was looking for.

I created about 50 custom fields and I would like to copy the whole Field Set to a new CPT

So, Lets say you created a Custom Field Group namely "ABC" that holds those 50 fields.

Now, you can edit your custom field group "ABC" and from the settings section available at top, you should click on "Edit" button and you can assign the same field group "ABC" to multiple post types as desired. Please check the following screenshot:
