Possible bug in Import/Export of DataManagement options?

Hello Joshua,

Thank you for contacting the Sophos Community.

Would it be possible to share your exported .XML file so I can compare it with the one I downloaded, it does look like the entries as you mentioned are duplicated, just want to confirm if they’re the same entries

Regards,

Example export below.

Hello Joshua,

Thank you for the output.

I will be asking GES if this is expected.

Hello Joshua,

I forgot to update you earlier, but this is with DEV now under NC-87666

Hello,

This is marked as Won't Fix. due to some changes in the workflow that would need to be changed on older and newer versions, including some changes to the Data Management Page and the import-export API Layer.

Regards,
