# Import sensitive data setup

You can import sensitive data change tracking setup from an XML file that is exported from another D365 F&SCM environment.

### Steps

1. Go to **Security and compliance** > **Setup** > **Sensitive data setup**.
2. Click **Import**, on the dialog browse for the desired XML file, and click **Upload**.
3. You can overwrite existing sensitive data change tracking setup. If a setup already exists, it is replaced with the imported setup.

Select **Yes** in the **Overwrite existing setup** field.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note**
> 
> - Existing sensitive data change tracking setup is overwritten only if it is inactive. So, currently used setup is not disrupted.
> - The import process automatically resolves environment-specific discrepancies. For example, if a user from the imported setup does not exist in the target environment, the import completes successfully while skipping that user. This prevents errors and ensures a smooth transition.
4. Click **OK**.
5. Close the page.
