Exporting and importing policies

You can export and import policies in JSON format or in XACML (eXtensible Access Control Markup Language) format. Using JSON creates an exact copy of the original policy sets, resource types and policies upon import. See Import and exporting policies for further information on using ssoadm, the AM admin UI or REST to export and import policies.

Refer to the Using Amster (JSON) section for details on using Amster instead.

Using Amster

You can export and import policies using Amster as follows.

Export

Use the following command to export:

am> export-config --path /path/to/export --realm / --realmEntities 'Policies'

Details for each policy will be written to a separate JSON file in the Policies directory within /path/to/export/realms/[realmName].

Import

Use the following command to import:

am> import-config --path /path/to/export
