 }
}

4.   Update the downloaded json. For example, I created new policy for the organization ‘ABC’.

abc_policy.json

{
 "id": "abc:policy",
 "localName": "abc:policy",
 "localNamespace": "http:\/\/apache.org",
 "displayName": "abc organization Policy",
 "queryName": "abc:policy",
 "description": "Builtin InMemory type definition abc:policy",
 "baseId": "cmis:policy",
 "parentId": "cmis:policy",
 "creatable": true,
 "fileable": false,
 "queryable": true,
 "fulltextIndexed": false,
 "includedInSupertypeQuery": true,
 "controllablePolicy": true,
 "controllableACL": true,
 "typeMutability": {
  "create": true,
  "update": true,
  "delete": true
 },
 "propertyDefinitions": {
  "abc:typeOfPolicy": {
   "id": "abc:typeOfPolicy",
   "localName": "abc:typeOfPolicy",
   "displayName": "Type of policy",
   "queryName": "abc:typeOfPolicy",
   "description": "type of the policy",
   "propertyType": "string",
   "cardinality": "single",
   "updatability": "readwrite",
   "inherited": false,
   "required": true,
   "queryable": true,
   "orderable": true
  },
  "abc:namespace": {
   "id": "abc:namespace",
   "localName": "abc:namespace",
   "displayName": "Name",
   "queryName": "abc:namespace",
   "description": "name space",
   "propertyType": "string",
   "cardinality": "single",
   "updatability": "readwrite",
   "inherited": false,
   "required": true,
   "queryable": true,
   "orderable": true
  }
 }
}

5.   On the workbench click on the button ‘Create Type’ and select the option ‘Load Type Definition from JSON’.

That’s it, you are done. Now you can create policys using this custom type.
