Importing configuration settings

To import configuration and preference settings:

Attention

Before importing, you can create a backup of you existing configuration by performing the steps in Exporting configuration settings.

  1. Navigate to Administration > Integration > TIBCO EBX® Data Exchange Add-on and from the dataset's Actions menu select Import XML.

  2. On the import configuration page, specify the following:

    • The file to import that contains the configuration and preference data.

    • Optionally, choose the Replace all import mode if you want to completely overwrite existing data.

    • Use the checkboxes to determine the scope of the import. See the table below for information on how add-on configuration data corresponds to each option.

    • If you only want to include preferences owned by a specific profile, use the Preference owner menu to select this profile.
