I export XLS file from Smartea

I parse the file with XLSX and produce a CSV
with

"ID","Type","Name","Documentation","Specialization"
"_6zr-AMuKEey-BNq1zaezkA","ApplicationComponent","Appli A","",""
"_7SARsMuKEey-BNq1zaezkA","ApplicationComponent","Module 1","",""
"_9n9ccMuKEey-BNq1zaezkA","ApplicationComponent","Module 1","",""

I want create the same object under Archi with the same id ?

It is possible ?

No, as for any tool, Id are technical things nobody should work with. If you want to keep track of some external reference, simply use properties for that purpose.

However, the CSV importer will use those IDs when importing to a model.

Right, I should have mentioned that CSV importer allows it.
