Copying a formula or function down a column of 1000 rows?

How can you copy a formula down a column in sheets? Not by manually dragging it. Imagine there are 1000 rows. Is there a short cut?

I have dragged the corner of the cell, but that works for a shorter list. Sometimes when I put the formula in the cell Sheets will ask if it can auto-fill, which is great but if you edit that formula - I can't seem to copy the new edit formula down 1000 rows without having to manually drag the corner.

You can try to copy the first row, then press CTRL SHIFT ↓ until the last row and paste it.
