Add the ability to export/import mapping for AD & Powershell V2 target system

We would like to have the ability to export and import the configured mapping for Active Directory and Powershell V2 target systems. This is so we can store the mapping in GitHub and import it at another tenant which helps to set up the target connector more easily.
Important note: The old mapping exports are not compatible with the new import functionality.
Solution:
- Add the ability to import and export a definition of mapped fields in a standardized format.
- Replace existing fields if already present (we do not remove any already existing fields)
- A file is used to import or export the mapping
- A preview of the fields which are imported

Will this feature be available via API or only through the graphical user interface? It would be nice to perform regular backups of our target systems, but doing it by hand is unreliable.

Eemil: The feature is only available on the graphical user interface. Please keep in mind that we do not guarantee compatibility between versions of HelloID (compatibility is based on best effort). This means that it could be that an old exported file doesn't work in a newer version of HelloID.

Hi Rick, could you be any more specific about the working of this import/export?

We'd like to define a field definition that can be used to select fields in the account mapping. So not to replace the current mapping, but make fields selectable in the mapping overview. And also mark certain fields as required. Is this something that could be explored for the definition import?

This would help so much with building target systems and implementing them. Just like the Active Directory System used to have.
@Tools4Ever: I am open to talk to you about this and enlighten the need!

Add option to export/import mappings for Powershell v2 target systems

I would like to have the option to import/export the mapping of a powershell v2 target system. With this we can create a backup of the mapping before making changes and this will help us by uploading a default mapping file to github so we don't have to start from scratch when implementing the connector.
