I have a bunch of input elements and with javascript on click i'm getting the values of these inputs and paste it in a div somewhere
Please run the code snipped below to check

$('#getthelist').click(function() {
  $('.inputs>li .color').map(function() {
    return {
      name: this.closest('[id]').id,
      value: $(this).val()
    }
  }).get().forEach(function(e) {
    $('.list').append('<div>' + '\"' + e.name + '\": \"' + e.value + '\",</div>');
  });
});
ul,li {
  list-style: none;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}
.list {
    margin: 10px;
    width: 270px;
    padding: 25px;
    background-color: #fafafb;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<li id="color_white">
<ul class="inputs">

Please check my snippet codes.

function copyToClipboad(texts) {
  var textareaElCloned = $('<textarea>' + texts + '</textarea>');
  $('.list').append(textareaElCloned);
  /* Select the text field */
  textareaElCloned[0].select();
  /* Copy the text inside the text field */
  document.execCommand("copy");
}

$('#getthelist').click(function() {
  var html = '';
  var texts = '';
  var itemEls = $('.inputs > li .color');
  
  itemEls.map(function() {
    return {
      name: this.closest('[id]').id,
      value: $(this).val()
    }
  }).get().forEach(function(e, index) {
    var text = '\"' + e.name + '\": \"' + e.value + '\",';
    texts += text;
    html += ('<div>' + text + '</div>');
    
    if (index === itemEls.length-1) {
       copyToClipboad(texts);
    }
  });
  
  $('.list').html(html); // the textarea will be removed at this moment
});
ul,li {
  list-style: none;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}
.list {
    margin: 10px;
    width: 270px;
    padding: 25px;
    background-color: #fafafb;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<li id="color_white">
<ul class="inputs">

    <input type="radio" value="getthelist" id="getthelist"> Click to get the color values

  
  <li id="color_white">
	  <div>
		  <input type="text" value="#fff" class="color">
	  </div>
  </li>
  
  <li id="color_black">
	  <div>
		  <input type="text" value="#000" class="color">
	  </div>

I tried to give you both questions answer.

Answer of Q1 you should reset HTML content before set new value.

Answer of Q2 you should use document.executeCommand("copy") to copy the text.

Hope it may help to resolve your issue.

function copyData(copyText) {
  $("body").append($("<textarea/>").val(copyText).attr({id:"txtareaCopyData"}));
  var copyText = document.querySelector("#txtareaCopyData");
  copyText.select();
  document.execCommand("copy");
  $("#txtareaCopyData").remove();
}

$('#getthelist').click(function() {
  // Clear html div content
  $('.list').html("");
  var copyText = "";
  $('.inputs>li .color').map(function() {
    return {
      name: this.closest('[id]').id,
      value: $(this).val()
    }
  }).get().forEach(function(e) {
    var _data = '<div>' + '\"' + e.name + '\": \"' + e.value + '\",</div>';
    $('.list').append(_data);
    copyText += _data;
  });
  copyData(copyText);
  document.querySelector("#txtCopyArea").addEventListener("click", copyData);
});
ul,
li {
  list-style: none;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

.list {
  margin: 10px;
  width: 270px;
  padding: 25px;
  background-color: #fafafb;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<li id="color_white">
  <ul class="inputs">

    <input type="radio" value="getthelist" id="getthelist"> Click to get the color values


    <li id="color_white">
      <div>
        <input type="text" value="#fff" class="color">
      </div>
    </li>

    <li id="color_black">
      <div>
        <input type="text" value="#000" class="color">
      </div>
    </li>
  </ul>
  <input type="hidden" id="txtCopyArea" name="txtCopyArea" />

  <div class="list"></div>

I have tested the solution from Dipak chavda but it does not work for me also. The problem is that the input is type of hidden. So I changed it to hidden textarea. When you try to copy, I make it visible for a while, focus it, select it's value and then exec the copy. And it works ;)

function copyData(copyText) {
  var $txtCopyArea = $("#txtCopyArea");
  // set the text as value
  $txtCopyArea.val(copyText);
  // make textarea visible
  $txtCopyArea.removeClass('hidden');
  /* focus & select the text field */
  $txtCopyArea.focus().select();
  /* Copy the text inside the text field */
  document.execCommand("copy");
  /* Alert the copied text */
  alert("Copied the text: " + copyText);
  // hide textarea
  $txtCopyArea.addClass('hidden');
}

$('#getthelist').click(function() {
  // Clear html div content
  $('.list').html("");
  var copyText = "";
  $('.inputs>li .color').map(function() {
    return {
      name: this.closest('[id]').id,
      value: $(this).val()
    }
  }).get().forEach(function(e) {
    var _data = '<div>' + '\"' + e.name + '\": \"' + e.value + '\",</div>';
    $('.list').append(_data);
    copyText += _data;
  });
  copyData(copyText);
});
ul,
li {
  list-style: none;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

.list {
  margin: 10px;
  width: 270px;
  padding: 25px;
  background-color: #fafafb;
}

.hidden {
    display: none;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<li id="color_white">
  <ul class="inputs">

    <input type="radio" value="getthelist" id="getthelist"> Click to get the color values


    <li id="color_white">
      <div>
        <input type="text" value="#fff" class="color">
      </div>
    </li>

    <li id="color_black">
      <div>
        <input type="text" value="#000" class="color">
      </div>
    </li>
  </ul>
  <textarea id="txtCopyArea" class="hidden"></textarea>

  <div class="list"></div>

  1. save your data in localStorage.setItem (return value of .map must save in localstorage)

  2. get your data with localStorage.getItem (get data from localstorage with key that you set for item)

  3. create a template with handlebar.js, and when click on checkbox, render template with data that get from localstorage.

for new data, you must update localstorage.
