```auto

dbms.security.procedures.unrestricted=gds.*,apoc.*
dbms.security.procedures.whitelist=gds.*,apoc.coll.*,apoc.load.*
#apoc cofig added
apoc.import.file.enabled=true
apoc.export.file.enabled=true

Hello @shubham,

Try this:

```auto
dbms.security.procedures.unrestricted=gds.*,apoc.*
dbms.security.procedures.whitelist=gds.*,apoc.*

```

Don't forget to restart the database after:)

yeah i have tried it,it is just the editor problem (when i bold the a section it just left the '\*').  
or do i have to remove the below lines in conf file?  
**apoc.import.file.enabled=true**  
**apoc.export.file.enabled=true**

Please, have a look on my second line: I wrote: `gds.*,apoc.*` and not `gds.,apoc.coll.,apoc.load.*` 🙂

yeah i had a look on them  
i have configured the files in similar way but when i bold it on the editor of **online community** while creating the thread,it just left out the '\*'  
so they are just right  
here is a screen grab for the same

@shubham

You can check if APOC is installed with:  
`CALL apoc.help('apoc')`  
`CALL gds.list()`

So I see you didn't follow what I wrote:  
`dbms.security.procedures.whitelist=gds.*,apoc.*` is different from what you wrote on your file but anyway, did you restart the database after saving the file?

Can you execute both requests and show me what is happening please?

To write code on the community forum, you can use the format text option:)

@shubham did you solve your issue?

`dbms.security.procedures.whitelist=gds.*,apoc.coll.*,apoc.load.*`  
by

```auto
dbms.security.procedures.whitelist=gds.*,apoc.*

```
