Allow Contingent values to be duplicated between feature layers and created in ArcGIS Online

Contingent Values can be used in FieldMaps however to get them working they need to be in feature layer that was published from ArcGIS Pro. This layer when duplicated loses its contingent values. This has been tested using 3 approaches:

using a new item based on an existing layer in ArcGIS Online;
making a copy in ArcGIS Online Assistant;
making a copy using the clone_items() function in notebook.

It would be helpful to make this possible so that a layer with a form (which are not editable in ArcGIS Pro) AND contingent values could be created without having to publish from Pro (and then re-create a complex form from scratch).

It would be even better to be able to create layers from scratch with contingent values in them in ArcGIS Online without having to publish initially from Pro.

Unbelievable that this isn't a "feature" especially since contingent values was classed as "fully implemented" for AGOL last year.

This has also been tested using python in notebook on AGOL with no luck using the Contingent Values toolset

This addition would speed up my workflow immensely
