Import text data to the editor


Shmuel Bashan (4166) | asked Jan 04 '12, 8:15 a.m.
Is there a way to import textual data to the Requirement Editor.
I can import CSV to the requirement attributes, but would like to import the requirement details into the Editor Area.
Thanks

In the CSV file, if you have a column title "Primary Text" anything in that column will be added to the main content area.

One of the easiest ways to ensure the correct column names, is to first create a test requirement in RRC, then create a saved filter and export that filter (right click menu). This will create a csv file with all the selected filter columns ias well as the key internal names.

Note that the ID column is ignored in an import - new requirements are always created. There is an outstanding enhancement request for CSV round-tripping.
