Import policy set bindings using the administrative console
We can import predefined client or provider policy set bindings using the administrative console.
This task only applies to general client or provider bindings. Before beginning this task, review the defining and managing service client or provider bindings.
The general bindings panel has an Import button to allow the import of client or provider policy set bindings. We can import a policy set binding by specifying the full path and filename of the binding to import.
Tasks
- Navigate to the General client policy set bindings or the General provider policy set bindings panel using one of the following ways:
- Services > Policy sets > General client policy set bindings
- Services > Policy sets > General provider policy set bindings
- Click Import.
- Specify the full path and file name of the policy set binding to import.
- Select either Use current binding name or Specify a different name to use for this binding. If we are importing a binding and that binding name already exists in the repository, specify a different name to use for the binding import.
- Click OK.
When we finish this task, we have been able to import a policy set binding using the administrative console.

If we have a policy set binding, XYZ_psbind and we want to import it...
- From the General client or provider policy set bindings panel, click Import.
