Exporting and importing the list of web resource addresses

If you created a list of web resource addresses when creating a web resource access rule, you can export it to a TXT file. You can subsequently import the list from this file to avoid creating a new list of web resource addresses manually when configuring an access rule. The option of exporting and importing the list of web resource addresses may be useful if, for example, you create access rules with similar parameters.

To export a list of web resource addresses to a file in Kaspersky Security Center:
