> Import API: Add Support to Update Attributes of Existing Types During Import

> Project: Atlas
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: atlas-core
> Affects Versions: trunk, 0.8-incubating
> Reporter: Ashutosh Mestry
> Assignee: Ashutosh Mestry

> Fix For: trunk

>
> *Background*
> Existing version of Import API allows for importing types that are not
> already present in the system being imported in. This causes import to fail
> in the cases where the data being imported happens to have the additional
> attribute.
> *Solution*
> During import, existing types are checked to determine if the types being
> imported have additional attributes. If additional attributes exist, then the
> existing type is updated with the new attributes. The import then proceeds.
> *Impact Assessment*
> - Import API:
> -- Type import: Additional capability (mentioned above).
> -- Entity creation and processing: No impact.
> - Export API: No impact.
