Import Service Connections

Manager allows you to import service connections. Use this functionality to:

  • Roll-back service connections
  • Re-create service connections in another instance of Manager
  • Promote service connections to another environment

Manager runs a virus scanning service before an import file is processed, so the antivirus service must be properly configured and enabled. If a virus is detected, the import operation fails and a corresponding record is added to the Error Log.  |  23.04 This feature was introduced in 23.04
