RQM Excel importer tool: Linking to existing artifacts (test scripts)
Accepted answer
You should be using Link() modifier as Hao mentioned, not LinkExisting.
Here's a sample .cfg file I have used in the past:
***
// Mapping for new Test Case
testcase.XLSWorksheetID="Sheet1"
testcase.XLSStartRow=4
testcase.XLSArtifactID=A
testcase.dc:title=B
testcase.dc:description=C
// Perform linking of artifacts
testcase.testscript=Link(D)
*****
My Excel file is below:

HI Hao! thanks, first of all! I've read the document you linked, and there is a paragraph that is important:
"the
the syntax will be
testcase.testplan=LinkExisting("testplanid"), testplanid1 is the external/internal id of the test plan on RQM server.
testscript.testcase=LinkExisting(E1)
testcase.testsuite=LinkExisting(F)"
I remember to you that I've in my RQM some testscripts ready, I want to import test cases, and link them, but from this paragraph I understand that testcase is considered the master artifact that must exist on the RQM server, so I could import just testscripts and link them, that is the opposite of what I need to do.
Am I wrong in my interpretation in your opinion?

LinkExisting
modifier only deals with the support for linking master artifact and the artifact must exist on the RQM server side first.
