You can use the import feature to transfer content into a Yellowfin inst= ance. This could be one of the files that were created during the export pr= ocess.
Folders that have restrictions on them and require expert approval for t= heir content to be made available to the users, will have this restriction = removed during the import process. The status of the contents within these = folders will be changed to active.
To import a content file into a Yellowfin instance, follow the procedure= on this page.
Through the main menu on the left, navigate to Administ=
ration > Import
You could also get to the import screen by following the path below:

Yellowfin will scan the data from your file to see if any of it is alrea= dy present in the system, and if so, it will display an error message alert= ing you of this. This helps you to not store double copies of your data and= reports, even if they have a different name. (Yellowfin can match the univ= ersally unique identifiers/UUID of each file regardless of what their curre= nt name may be.)
Next, choose how to proceed with the import; Yellowfin gives you thr=
ee options as explained below:
A=
ll: Select this option to import all the data from the file; this =
includes the primary and secondary content. (Note: If any of the data alrea=
dy exists in your new file, it will be added again anyway).
Restore: This type of partial impo=
rt lets you choose which of the primary content to import. You cannot choos=
e between the secondary content, but the entire secondary content related t=
o your chosen primary data will be imported as well.
Custom: If you proceed with this selection=
, you can choose the primary and secondary content to im=
port. This way you can customise the content that you want to import, any w=
ay you like, giving you full control
