we can’t seem to import the .json file after we’ve exported the config. We get this error:

~~Did you attempt to import the Launcher Config, or an Application Config? If the latter, how did you obtain the Application Config in the first place?~~ Nevermind, I was able to replicate the issue.

Thanks it seems to be working now!

If I configure the `vision-client-launcher.json` to lock the configuration (`lock.configuration": true,` it doesn’t seem to lock the settings out. Will there be a way to import settings to “lock” out the settings eventually?
