Hello,

I have created a context for authentication and when I tried to export it, a pop-up message read "You do not have permissions to write to the selected directory." It says this no matter what directory I select (including the default). I have admin access on my computer so I'm not sure why it says I don't have permission. I'm fairly new to this so would appreciate any guidance. Thanks!

Best,

Ryan

Hi Ryan,

Is that on MacOS?

If so its a MacOS permissions issue - see this issue https://github.com/zaproxy/zaproxy/issues/6444

Cheers,

Simon

Never mind, it was because it didn't like the filename. I just changed it and that worked. Thanks anyways :)
