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.
