hi plturcotte,
if you are using Excel Importer
you can use the following syntax in config file

testplan.XLSArtifactID=B2 //B2 contains the existing internal id or external id
testplan.XLSLink=testcase
testcase.XLSStartRow=1
testcase.dc:title=A
..

Hi Hao, I am also having same question. I am still not clear, what should be B2? When I had put it as 36 (test plan ID which I am able to see in 'View Test Plans' section of RQM) then I am getting two errors: "Error sending to server 36 of type testplan", "Error sending to server Requirement_Design of type testplan". I am using RQMExcelImporter version 1.0.4465.14983 on client network & can't upgrade it to current version.

Hi Pierre-Luc Turcotte and Vivek Agarwal ,
in Excel Importer, we can use LinkExisting modifier to linking to existing test artifacts.

Thanks Hao for this information. I'll follow up with my project infra team for updating Importer addin to v4.0.1. After that, I'll check if this is working fine for me.

Hi Vivek, the feature will be contained in 4.0.1 M4 which will release later this month or begging of next month, FYI.

Hi There,
Are you talking about Excel import tool to import the test case and at the same time specify link to existing test plan in RQM?

See Modifiers of data section for linking

Hi Pramod, I have used following syntax: testcase.testplan=LinkExisting("36"). But an error is coming: "Found a value that reduced to "LinkExisting("36")", but was expecting a value equivalent to a column, cell, or a literal. I am using RQMExcelImporter version 1.0.4465.14983 on client network & can't upgrade it to current version. Please tell me where is the problem in the syntax.
