Import requirement types

You can import definitions for requirement types and their associated user-defined fields from an ALM project to your Word document. You can then define and export the requirement type for each requirement in your Word document. After you define a requirement type for a requirement, you can export values for user-defined fields that are available for requirements of that type.

To import requirement types from an ALM project:

  1. Click . The Requirement Type Definitions Wizard - Step 1 of 5 dialog box opens.

    Type your ALM URL: http://<ALM server name>[:port]/qcbin.

    For single sign-on users, enable Add basic auth header mode.

    Note: Add basic authentication header mode is optional, and should only be enabled if you get an invalid server response message.

  2. Click Next. The Requirement Type Definitions Wizard - Step 2 of 5 dialog box opens.

    Enter your ALM user name and password.

  3. Click Next. The Requirement Type Definitions Wizard - Step 3 of 5 dialog box opens.

    Select an ALM domain and project.

  4. Click Import. The Requirement Type Definitions Wizard - Step 4 of 5 dialog box opens. The add-in imports the requirement types and user-defined fields from the ALM project.

  5. After the add-in imports the requirement types and user-defined fields, the Requirement Type Definitions Wizard - Step 5 of 5 dialog box opens. Click Finish. The requirement types and user-defined fields are updated in the Word document.
