Possible to import updates to manually entered records? - Cobalt 8

In trying to import some revisions to existing manually entered records, I find that:

If the title is set to 'Unique' = YES, the Import module tells me that 'There is already a record with this title.

If the title is set to 'Unique' =NO, it creates a second record with the same title.

Glad I just tried it on five records to start with.

Is it possible to use import to update a record that was entered manually? (I have been successful in updating a record that was previously imported)

Import will update records if you set ID field. Then it will compare by that ID and update if record was previously imported.

In this case, I'm trying to update a record that was - manually - created, not imported. And an ID field was set.

Is it possible to update a record with an ID set that was entered manually?

no. Every import creates map of imported records and save it to compare it during next import. If there is no map, articles considered as new.

If we add the key and record ID to the res_import table via SQL, will that allow us to import revisions to those records?

Yes if you add assosiation then it will allow.
