 + 
 +When creating multiple [[object:customer|Customers]] with identical [[object:media|Media Types]] and/or [[object:repository|Repositories]] it is possible to create a configuration file with these Attributes and include it in the master configuration file to save duplication of code blocks.

 +<note tip>A configuration file may “include” the contents of another file using an include directive.  
 + 
 +This directive has the effect of in-lining the contents of the named file at the point of inclusion. 
 + 
 +An include directive must appear on its own line in the input. It has the form: 
 + 
 +@include "filename" 
 + 
 +Any backslashes or double quotes in the filename must be escaped as ‘\\’ and ‘\"’, respectively.</note>
