# Import Community Information

(Available for the IDOL Community component, and IDOL Proxy.)

On the Backup/Restore tab on the Console page, you can import user, role, agent, and profile information from a specified location.

The `Import` action and the `ImportFileName` action parameter perform this task. For information about this action, see the IDOL Server Reference.

To import your Community information

1. In the Path box, type the file path of the location from which you want to import your Community information.

   The Import Action String box shows the action that is sent to IDOL Server. The action is automatically constructed as you complete the Path field. It is shown for reference only; you cannot edit the action directly.

2. By default, IDOL Admin imports all user fields; if you want to import only specific fields, click Import comma separated wildcard list of user fields, then enter the fields that you want to import as a comma-separated list.

3. Click Import to send the action.
