Ability to Import at the folder level in RRC4
We have just upgraded to RRC4, and I have noticed that when viewing artifacts at the folder level, i have noticed that when hovering over a folder in the pop menu Import is no longer present. Any reason what this was removed, we have build training around that option being available at the folder level, Is this defect?

Hi Homer,
There were more import options added in 4.0 where it made sense to create an Import wizard instead of having a selection for "Import CSV, Import ReqIF from file, Import ReqIF from project, Import Word Document, Import from text document..." at the folder level. There were a few work items around adding an import wizard rather than having too many "Import" options:
50332: Move word import to common import location
47620: Combine multiple "import" options into a wizard with a single launching point
I'd suggest creating an enhancement if you'd still like to be able to invoke the Import wizard from the folder menu options as well. Hope it helps,
