Import-RDMRepository

Synopsis

Import vaults contained in a rdx file in the current workspace.

Syntax

__AllParameterSets

Import-RDMRepository [-Path] <string> [-Password <securestring>] [-Duplicate <DuplicateAction>]
 [-KeepID] [-ForcePromptAnswer <DialogResult[]>] [<CommonParameters>]

Description

Import vaults contained in a rdx file in the current workspace. If the file is protected, the parameter Password must be used to unlock the data contained. By default, all entries will have their ID changed. This is to avoid unwanted behaviors, such as moving an entry if imported in the same database. The Duplicate parameter indicates the action (ignore, overwrite, add) to apply in presence of duplicated entries. A limitation of the command is the inability to map the imported vaults to a specific one. Each vault will be assigned to an existing one with the same ID or the same name, or a new one if none are found. This command is only available to administrators on advanced workspaces. Because an application identity on a Devolutions Cloud workspace cannot hold administrator privileges, its capabilities are more restricted. It must have the appropriate rights (Add Entries, Create Vault).

Examples

Example 1

PS C:\> $pwd = Read-Host -AsSecureString;
    Import-RDMRepository -Path myFile.rdx -Password $pwd

Import all vaults in 'myFile.rdx'. The protected file is unlocked with the parameter $pwd.

Example 2

PS C:\> $filePath = 'C:\my\path\filename.rdx';
    Export-RDMRepository -Name VaultA, VaultB, VaultC -Path $path -IncludeAttachments -IncludeCredentials -IncludeDocumentation;
    Get-RDMDataSource -Name AnotherOne | Set-RDMCurrentDataSource;
    Import-RDMSession -Path myFile.rdx -KeepID -Duplicate IgnoreAll

Export VaultA, VaultB, and VaultC of the current workspace in the file specified by $path. Change the current workspace to 'AnotherOne' and import all vaults recently exported. With the KeepID switch present, all imported entries will keep their ID. As long as the new workspace does not use the same database, no unexpected behaviors will happen.

Parameters

-Duplicate

Action to apply to the imported entries in case of a duplicate. If the KeepID switch is not present, no duplicate will be found. By default, all duplicates will be ignored.
