#Composite Inbound (Group Policies) Policy

The Composite inbound policy allows you to create groups of other policies, for easy reuse across multiple routes. Other policies are referenced by their name.

Be careful not to create circular references which can cause your gateway to fail.

#Configuration

The configuration shows how to configure the policy in the 'policies.json' document.
