Import and Export Authorization Extension Data

You can import new data from or export existing authorization data to a JSON file. This can be useful when moving environments.

  1. Go to the Import/Export section by clicking Configuration on the drop-down menu accessible by clicking on your tenant name at the top right of the Authorization Dashboard.

    Dashboard - Authorization Extension Dashboard - Configuration

  2. Select Import/Export.

    Dashboard - Authorization Extension Dashboard - Configuration - Import Export

  3. Use this form to copy and paste or edit the JSON data. Then, click either the Import or Export button to begin the import/export process. Here is an example of the JSON file:
