Import security zones

Procedure

Within Guidewire PolicyCenter, navigate to the following location:
- Administration > Utilities > Export Data
Select Admin from the Data to Export drop-down list, then click Export.
Open the resulting file (admin.xml) for editing.
Review the file for existing security zones (<SecurityZone public-id="...">).

Pay particular attention to the public-id value for each existing security zone. Any security zone that you add to this file must have a unique public-id value. See Public ID prefix for more information on public IDs.
Add unique entries for each security zone to import.
For example:
```
<SecurityZone public-id="pc:236">
  <Description>Some meaningful description…</Description>
  <Name>Some meaningful name…</Name>
</SecurityZone>
```
This example sets the public-id value to pc:236. Chose a public ID value that makes business sense for your organization.
After saving the file, navigate to the following location in PolicyCenter:
- Administration > Utilities > Import Data
Browse to find your modified file and click Next.

If there are conflicts between the administrative data in the import file and the existing administrative data, PolicyCenter provides a mechanism for conflict resolution. You can chose to do one of the following:
- Overwrite all existing data with the imported data
- Discard updates to any existing data and keep the existing data
- Interactively resolve each data conflict on a case-by-case basis
After resolving all data conflicts, click Finish.

You can now use the updated set of security zones in PolicyCenter without server restart.
