# Importing Settings
{% hint style="warning" %}
Warning: importing settings will erase all of your current settings and replace them with the settings in the imported file. Export your settings first if you need to save or merge any settings.
{% endhint %}
To import settings open the menu at the top right:
And in the menu that appears click **Import Settings**:
In the dialog that appears, drag and drop a file in the **Settings File** area or click **Select File...** to select a file in a dialog.
Finally, click **OK** to import the settings. Once Clarity Gateway is finished importing it will refresh the page and you should see the new settings.
If there is an error in the settings file (this should usually only happen if you have edited it manually) you'll see an error message:
