Settings Import & Export

Vesper Audit settings can be exported to a JSON file and imported back at any time. This makes it straightforward to share a baseline configuration across machines, set up per-client configurations, or restore settings after reinstalling the app.

Exporting settings

1. Open Vesper Audit and go to Settings.
2. Click Export Settings.
3. Choose a location and filename for the exported .json file.

The exported file contains all current settings: output folder, scan options, exclusions, suppressions, query string handling, notification preferences, and Notion integration details.

Importing settings

1. Open Vesper Audit and go to Settings.
2. Click Import Settings.
3. Select the .json settings file to import.
4. Settings are applied immediately.

Resetting to defaults

To clear all settings and return to defaults:

1. Go to Settings.
2. Click Reset Settings.
3. Confirm the reset when prompted.

This is useful when switching between significantly different client configurations or starting fresh after experimentation.

Per-client configurations

A common workflow is to maintain a separate settings file for each client or project. For example:

• client-a-settings.json - includes client A's URL, output folder, exclusions for their known false positives, and their Notion page ID.
• client-b-settings.json - same structure for client B.

When switching between clients, import the relevant settings file before starting the audit.

Sharing a baseline configuration

If multiple people use Vesper Audit within a team, exporting a shared baseline settings file ensures everyone starts with the same defaults: consistent output folder structure, agreed exclusions, shared Notion configuration, and any other organizational standards.
