XML Data Files

This section describes XML data files, which are a way to interface with the directives you create with settings that are pre-populated, those which you have uploaded from an on-prem MMC console, and those which you create with the in-cloud editors. For any existing XML data file, you have the following functions (icons shown below)

  • Modify
  • Show Report
  • Download
  • Delete
  • Duplicate

You can also expand an item to see which groups an XML directive is specifically linked to. Additionally, you can perform the following actions, which create new policies:

  • Upload XML Data File
  • Create Policy (which uses the in-cloud editors)
  • Create Policy From Template
  • Import Policies From GPO Backup
