Syntax Syntax

The following is an example of a file containing a role in the import format. The users MikhailKomarov, TeresaRuiz, and AlainChevalier must already exist, otherwise an error occurs. Similarly, the groups Contractors and Scranton must already exist. If role already exists, this import file overwrites any role assignments, if overwrite is enabled.

  1. [Role]
    rid=Role1
    rdesc=Role description
    user=MikhailKomarov;TeresaRuiz;
    user=AlainChevalier;
    group=Contractors;Scranton
     
End of the code.
