Importing instances from an external database requires a Kron PAM job for synchronization. The job will update the information on Kron PAM periodically, depending on the cron expression:

1. Navigate to **Administration **> **Jobs Scheduler.**
2. Open the **Trigger List** tab.
3. Select **DeviceDatabaseImportJob** as the Job.
4. Fill in the **Trigger Name** and **Cron Expression** fields.
5. To enable the job, select **Enabled** for the **Active** field.
6. **Save.**
