RQM Word Importer: Import created new test case instead of updating existing one
Hi, I was able to get past the hurdle documented in https://jazz.net/forum/questions/220926/how-to-resolve-rqmimporter-input-string-not-in-correct-format-issue; however, when it was able to connect a couple of things happened:
I need to be able to UPDATE test cases. I don't expect us to be creating NEW test cases in this fashion; just doing UPDATES.
Is there something special that needs to be done?

Hi, Karen
Excel/WordImporter is not used to update the existing test artifacts(not supported). If test case 57 is also exported via importer and external ID is set in config file, then using the same external id you should be able to export into the same test case 57 with the specified attributes in the config file. You may consider this as "update" but it actually works as overwrite: that is, if you don't want to change any previously created(via importer as well) attribute, you still need to specify those attributes in the config file as well as those you intend to change.

Hi Don, "Overwrite" is OK in this situation. This particular issue came up during the investigation of RQM Defect 152875 and a new defect was written, RQM Defect 152996. Thanks, Karen
