Extract and Edit
This option is available for all extracts and allows the ability for the end user to edit the XML file as needed.

The following items can be extracted:

Security

This covers System Roles, Users, Security Groups, and Exclusion Groups which can be found under the System Tab |Administration| Security. The screen will display Extract Unique IDs. If this box is checked, the unique IDs OneStream assigns to each user will be extracted with the security.  When moving security changes from one OneStream environment to another, trying to load the security with the unique IDs into the destination environment can result in an error if some of the records already exist. If this is the case, uncheck this box and extract without the unique IDs.  Items to Extract also displays and by default All is chosen. Choose specific items in each section or turn the sections on or off.
