Copy an artifact in one project, then Paste Special in a second project and create a link back to the original artifact?

retagged Jan 29 '18, 12:21 a.m. by Minakshi Jaint (511●3) In RDNG 6.0.3, we have a set of requirements which have been apportioned to a number of contract packages. This apportionment is captured in a custom attribute.
I would like to select all requirements which have a particular apportionment enumeration, copy them, then paste them in a module in a new project. The paste should duplicate those requirements, and create a link back to the source requirement. Pretty simple, exactly the same as Paste Special, with the "Create a link from the original artifact to the copied artifact", but between projects.
Both projects are on the same server, or in our case the same cloud.
Is it possible? I have tried all ways I can think of, but none work.

![]() After some experimentation, allow me to answer my own question:
Yes, is it possible, using csv export, a bit of Excel manipulation, csv import, and link by attribute

![]() Does this help?
Comments Thanks Donald
That link however makes no mention of creating a link back to the source artifact.
Any ideas whether it is possible?
I can't see such option in my testing. Although there is another option "include links", it does not make much a difference - it only warns me that some links cannot be copied, but does not seem to copy any other links at all.
