polyCopyUV is undoable, queryable, and editable.

Flags

Long name (short name)	[argument types]	Properties
uvSetNameInput(uvi)	string
Specifies name of the input uv set to read the UV description from. Default is the current UV set. In query mode, this flag needs a value.
createNewMap(cm)	boolean
This flag when set true will create a new map with a the name passed in, if the map does not already exist. In query mode, this flag needs a value.
uvSetName(uvs)	string
Specifies name of the output uv set to modify. Default is the current UV set. In query mode, this flag needs a value.
name(n)	string
Name the resulting object.
constructionHistory(ch)	boolean

# Create a second UV set
cmds.select( 'pSphere1.f[0:399]', r=True )

# Copy the UVs of the fisrt 200 faces from the new set to the default one
