Adding Virtual Service using an Archive
Pre-requisites:
To add a Virtual Service asset to an organization's asset catalog, you must belong to a role that has the Create Assets or Manage Assets permission for that organization.
Note:  
By default, users with the CentraSite Administrator or Asset Administrator role have this permission.
Before you import a Virtual Service asset to the catalog, you must have the archive file (.zip file). This file must reside on the file system of the computer where your browser is running.
You can import a Virtual Service using the archive file (.zip file) to which the Virtual Service was previously exported. You can import Virtual Services into the same CentraSite registry from which they were originally exported or to a different CentraSite registry.
To add a Virtual Service asset using importer
1. In the CentraSite Business UI activity bar, click Create Assets.
This opens the Create New Asset wizard. The bottom panel of the Create New Asset wizard displays the option to import an archive file.
2. To import an archive file, click Choose to navigate to the folder where an exported archive file of the Virtual Service asset resides, and choose the file.
When you choose a file to import, the fields in the area labeled Basic Information cannot be edited.
3. Click Next.
The Create New Asset wizard displays a list of the referenced objects for the Virtual Service to import. The check box next to each object indicates whether the referenced object should be imported. By default, all objects displayed are included in the import set.
4. To exclude any referenced object from the import set, clear the corresponding check box.
5. Click the Advanced Settings chevron to expand the additional options that are available for the Virtual Service asset. Provide values for each of the displayed options:

Change Owner
The imported Virtual Service can be assigned to the same owner as in the source CentraSite registry, or you can assign a new owner.
The Change Owner field is type-ahead field. As you type characters in this field, the dialog box lists the user names that match the characters you specify.
Change Organization
When you import a Virtual Service, you can import it into the same organization in the target CentraSite registry as in the source CentraSite registry from which they were exported, or you can assign a new organization.
The Change Organization field is type-ahead field. As you type characters in this field, the dialog box will list the organization names that match the characters you specify.
Retain lifecycle state
This option determines whether the lifecycle state of the imported Virtual Service is preserved. Enable the option to retain the lifecycle state of the Virtual Service which is imported.
Overwrite existing entities
This option specifies that an existing Virtual Service with the same uuid in the target CentraSite registry will be overwritten, even if the Virtual Service in the archive is older than the one in the target CentraSite registry. Enable the option to overwrite the existing Virtual Service.
Import groups that the user belongs to
This option determines that when you import a user, whether you want to import the groups that the user belongs to. This applies only to user-defined groups. System-defined groups are not imported. Enable the option to import the groups.
6. Click Import to import the Virtual Service.
After the import operation completes, the import wizard informs you if the import was successful or if there were any errors and warnings.
7. Click Download Import Log to view the import logs.
The import log lists the status of all the objects stating whether they were successfully imported or if there were errors and warnings.
8. Click OK to terminate the import wizard.

9. Configure the extended attributes of the Virtual Service asset as described later in this topic.
Tip:  
If you had previously imported an WSDL file that has an associated schema file and you now re-import just the schema file with modifications, your browser may not display the updated contents of the schema file. This can happen if the browser cache is not being updated automatically. To rectify the problem, you can change your browser settings so that pages are always updated on every visit.
