How do you import a release definition in Azure Devops (VSTS)?

I'm trying to copy a release definition from one Azure Devops (VSTS) project to another. In the source project I'm able to export the release definition as a json file.

export release definition

But I'm not able to find a way to import this into the target project. I only get options to create new definitions.

create release definition
