Copy/clone requirements between separate instances

Case number TS002023717

Related to ReqIF, we faced many issues related to duplicate artifacts ​types and need to manual map the URI for attribute and attribute data type, if there is change in schemas/template between project areas. Refer to case TS001589943 for info.


Then Export/Import of CSV, the images/sketches and tables can't captured. In case if we Export/Import word document there will issues related to paragraph(Ex. If there are 4 paragraph in single artifact, then each paragraph is convert to artifact after import, which requires manual work) and use CSV to import the attribute.
Is it possible to copy/clone requirements between separate instances/Servers, so that manual effort will be saved?

    As part of the review process, we strive to be transparent about our intentions with each enhancement suggestion. The IBM Engineering team has carefully reviewed this idea, and based on our understanding, it does not fit our near-term plans. Although we are closing this request, it will be kept in IBM's ideas repository.  We value your feedback and thank you for allowing us to partner with you in developing our products.
