You can directly import a solution or any part of a solution from a content package. A content package consists of configuration data that is stored in RapidValue tables in XML format. For each record in a configuration, a line exists in the content package.
If a record already exists in RapidValue, it is replaced with the record in the content package.
The steps in this topic show how to import a content package from another D365 FO environment with RapidValue installed.
You can also import a content package from the RapidValue file share. If a content package is already available on the file share, it is shown in the grid on the Import wizard.


Standard procedure

1. Click Business process management.
2. Click Import Wizard.
3. Sub-task: Upload content package.
  3.1 By default, the source for the XML data is set to Content package.
Upload the to-be-imported content package from the source environment.
  Click Upload.
 

Note: You can also select a content package from the grid. These content packages are uploaded or created in the current environment.
