To dynamically fetch and include configuration values from external files into your configuration documents, use the "valueFrom" construct. Use this mechanism to store items such as TrafficScript rules and SSL certificates outside the main configuration document in their native format.

For example, a TrafficScript rule can be extracted into a separate file and accessed through "valueFrom", as follows:

/import/data/hello-world.zts
`http.sendResponse("200 OK", "text/plain", "Hello New World\n", "X-Served-By: Ivanti vTM");`

/import/config/example-config.yaml
`version: 6.1` `virtual_servers:` `- name: example-service` `properties:` `basic:` `enabled: true` `port: 80` `protocol: http` `pool: discard` `request_rules: [ basic-response ]` `rules:` `- name: basic-response` `content:` `valueFrom:` `fileRef:` `name: data/hello-world.zts`
