### Using a locally-stored static policy
If you'd like to use a [static policy file](https://github.com/devture/matrix-corporal/blob/master/docs/policy-providers.md#static-file-pull-style-policy-provider), you can use a configuration like this:
```yaml
matrix_corporal_policy_provider_config: |
{
"Type": "static_file",
"Path": "/etc/matrix-corporal/policy.json"
}
# Modify the policy below as you see fit
matrix_aux_file_definitions:
- dest: "{{ matrix_corporal_config_dir_path }}/policy.json"
content: |
{
"schemaVersion": 1,
"identificationStamp": "stamp-1",
"flags": {
"allowCustomUserDisplayNames": false,
"allowCustomUserAvatars": false,
"forbidRoomCreation": false,
"forbidEncryptedRoomCreation": true,
"forbidUnencryptedRoomCreation": false,
"allowCustomPassthroughUserPasswords": true,
"allowUnauthenticatedPasswordResets": false,
"allow3pidLogin": false
},
"managedCommunityIds": [],
"managedRoomIds": [],
"users": []
}
```
To learn more about what the policy configuration, see the matrix-corporal documentation on [policy](https://github.com/devture/matrix-corporal/blob/master/docs/policy.md).
Each time you update the policy in your `vars.yml` file, you'd need to re-run the playbook and restart matrix-corporal (`--tags=setup-all,start` or `--tags=setup-aux-files,setup-corporal,start`).
