# Authentication groups and data lists

## Exporting

List information is exported as a JSON.

#### Using the Admin Console

1. Login to the Admin Console and, if needed, switch to the desired tenant.
2. Click the **Authentication** menu. Select the list you want to export, one of:
  - Authenticator Groups
  - Countries
  - Device Models
  - Geofences
  - IP Addresses
  - WiFi Networks
3. The page for that list appears. Export all the lists on that page by clicking **Export All**. Alternatively, under the **Actions** column of the specific list you want to export, click the Export icon.

#### Using nnl-mgmt.sh

Use nnl-mgmt.sh's list export command. The example below shows how to export all country lists from the marketing tenant.

```plaintext
./nnl-mgmt.sh list export -type countries -tenantid marketing -file /home/default/countries.json
```

The next command exports the authenticator group called Biometric Authenticators and writes the information out to /testdir. The system generates the file name.

```plaintext
./nnl-mgmt.sh list export -type authenticator_group -name "Biometric Authenticators" -dir /testdir -tenantid marketing
```

For details on nnl-mgmt.sh's list import command, see [List Commands](/dpoa/docs/s3suite94-list-commands) in the reference to *Command Line Interface*. There are additional parameters for this command.

## Importing

#### Using the Admin Console

1. Login to the Admin Console and, if needed, switch to the desired tenant.
2. Click the **Authentication** menu. Select the type of list you want to import, one of:
  - Authenticator Groups
  - Countries
  - Device Models
  - Geofences
  - IP Addresses
  - WiFi Networks
3. The page for that list type appears. Click **Import**.
4. The Import List dialog appears. Click **Choose File** and navigate to the file to import. You can optionally select the **Overwrite any existing list with the same name** checkbox so lists from the import file replace existing lists. Click **Import.**

#### Using nnl-mgmt.sh

Use nnl-mgmt.sh's list import command. The example below shows how to import authenticator groups into the finance tenant, overwriting authenticator groups with the same name.

```plaintext
./nnl-mgmt.sh list import -type authenticator_group -tenantid finance -file /home/default/authenticator-groups.json -overwrite yes
```

The next command imports WiFi network lists but does not overwrite existing network lists with the same name.

```plaintext
./nnl-mgmt.sh list import -type wifi_networks -file /home/default/wifi‑networks.json ‑overwrite no ‑tenantid finance
```

For details on nnl-mgmt.sh's list import command, see [List Commands](/dpoa/docs/s3suite94-list-commands) in the reference to *Command Line Interface*. There are additional parameters for this command.
