Provide Batch configuration tool

This is a request to enhance and improve CDP configuration with a batch type interface.
Currently CDP provides a web-based user
interface that is provided as a plug-in to z/OSMF for administer policies. For large implementations this is cumbersome, repetitive and error prone => all areas that can be improved through automation.

    Thank you for submitting the enhancement request. We have been looking at different ways to enhance the configurability of Common Data Provider and will look to include this in a future release. The IBM team will reach out as we like to include our customers as sponsor users to ensure we deliver a solution that will fit your expectations.
