Policy Creator - New Option Idea

That is a great add-on . That will be really helpful in order to replicate certain policies for use cases.

💯

This is a great idea!

If you like this idea please don’t forget to upvote it in the ideas portal!

Other way to have this kind of feature :

• “Duplicate” option in the list of existing policies 
• “Convert to template” option in the list of existing policies

I would love to see something like this added to the policy creation section. Think of steps that would be removed by no longer needing to download an existing revision, create a blank policy, and finally importing your revision over the blank. It’s a small thing but when you do it all the time, it’s not so small.

Hi, I am curious on the use cases that require you to do this frequently?

That is a great Idea.

If you can’t wait on the idea to become a reality, you can currently accomplish this with the API.

We do no rules testing using our production policy. As such, we create a testing policy. Once the rules have been shown to be successful, we port them over to the production policy. When complete, we delete the test policy. At any given time, we may be working on multiple rule requests.

Hey @Josh Bristow - I’m curious, do you use this workflow for creating forked configuration, as well as effectively creating a branch of an existing policy which you then merge back in?

If you (or any other posters) are forking configuration, I’d be really interested to understand what use-cases usually drive that approach, but also whether you find that it’s the whole configuration which you need, or are you more often cherry picking certain parts of the source configuration (so today you’re having to delete out large chunks to leave the parts you actually want)?
