# Permission Set Editor

The Permission Set editor provides fine grained control for the restore of a Salesforce permission set.

Warning: Restoring a Permission Set completely replaces its definition in Salesforce. Unlike Profile restores, Permission Set restores DO NOT incrementally change a Permission Set.

## Partial Restore

For a partial restore, specific sub-components of a Permission Set are selected for the restore. A partial restore is typically used when migrating a Permission Set to a new environment where the original Permission Set contains entries related to objects/fields are not in the target Salesforce.

## Complete Restore

A complete restore will cause all properties of a Permission Set to be deployed.

## Expert Restore

An Expert restore provides fine control over the XML which is restored. See the [Export Mode Editor](/copystorm-restore/reference/meta-data-tab/expert-mode-editor.md) for details.
