Hi all,

I am working on the importing and exporting service provider as an xml
file. Currently, we support file-based DAO for service providers. But, this
new implementation allows users to export service provider and then import
back through the UI. Then it will be synced with the database. This feature
will be helpful in moving service provider configurations between
environments.

Currently, I have developed a POC using JAXB marshal[1]. We have planned to
skip "Inbound Authentication Configuration" in import/export as it will
contain secret information. In future, we can have configurations to
specify whether the user wants to export/import these inbound
authentication configurations.

If the corresponding identity providers or claims are not available in IS
when importing, we have planned to show a warning box and allow the
import.  For other kinds of exceptions, the import process will be reverted.

Please share your suggestions about this new feature.
