Import-VmsClientProfile
SYNOPSIS
Imports one or more smart client profiles from a json-formatted file on disk.
SYNTAX
Import-VmsClientProfile [-Path] <String> [-Force] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION
The Import-VmsClientProfile cmdlet imports one or more smart client profiles
from a json-formatted file on disk. The format of the file should match the format
produced by the Export-VmsClientProfile cmdlet.
By using Export-VmsClientProfile and Import-VmsClientProfile you can import
new smart client profiles or update existing profiles with the same name(s). The
profiles can be exported from one Milestone VMS and imported into another
Milestone VMS which can save time when managing multiple sites with the same or
similar smart client profile requirements.
EXAMPLES
Example 1
Export-VmsClientProfile -Path .\clientprofiles.json
# Remove one or more client profiles or change settings on one or more profiles.
Import-VmsClientProfile -Path .\clientprofiles.json -Force
Export all client profiles, and then import them again. The Force switch is
required in this case because the profiles may already exist. If any profiles
were modified or removed between the export and the import, then the missing
client profiles will be recreated, and the existing client profiles will be
updated to match the content of the export.
