Importing an Exported Job
Privitar can create Jobs by importing previously exported Job files.
A Job file contains the definition of the Job, and the Policy, Rules, and Schema it uses.
To import a Job:
Select Jobs from the Navigation sidebar.
Select Import Job from the Actions list box. The Import Job dialog box is displayed
Click on the Browse... link to select a JSON file to upload, or drag and drop a file directly on to the dialog box.
Review the name of the Job, Schema and Policy to be imported:
Click Import the included schema to import the Schema described in the file as a new Privitar Schema, or click Link with existing schema to re-use a Schema definition already in Privitar. The latter option is only available if at least one compatible Schema is stored in Privitar.
Click Import to proceed.
When importing the Policy used by the Job, Privitar will look in the Rules Library for the Rules included in the file:
If a compatible match is found (i.e. a Rule with the same name and definition), the existing rule will be re-used by the imported Policy.
If correspondingly named Rules exist, but their definitions are different from the definitions in the file, the conflicting rules will be listed in the Import dialog. The following actions are available to resolve the conflicts:
Select Resolve by creating new Rules to import the Rules from the file using new names.
Select Resolve by updating the Rules Library to overwrite the definition of the existing Rules in the Rules Library. Note that this operation will affect other Policies that might be using those Rules.
Select Resolve by using the current Rules from the Rules Library to use existing Rules and ignore the changes in the file.
Click Import to complete the import operation.
