title	STEP 4: Clone in your component on a different Iguana and update the code

Since the changes made have been pushed to the cloud, this component can now be cloned into any other Iguana.

Note: To try out this step you need to have a different Iguana instance ready with Bitbucket access configured. See: Setting up Bitbucket Access

Open the component that was created. From the component card, copy the Connected To field
In a different Iguana instance, from the dashboard click + From Url. Give the component a name, and paste in the url from before then click Add

Once the component is created, click Edit Script to go to Translator
- You may have to click and expand the Implementation section
See that the code changes made in the previous step have been brought across
Change to the code to the following, then commit and push the change.
Code Block
function main() component.setBorder{color="green"} end main()
Back on your other Iguana instance, update the component to run from this new commit. It can take a minute or two for the new commits to show up.
- Use the Using Commit dropdown and select the commit you just made

Now run the component and verify that the border turns green
Click on Edit Script to go to the Translator. To see the code changes, we have to pull in the changes from the remote repository.
- Do this by clicking on the Pull Changes button which looks like a cloud with an arrow pointing away from it.
- Notice that it has a blue dot, indicating that there are changes available to be pulled in. Click it and see that the code updates.
