Some of the fields depend on the **import definition** you choose, but the answers in the survey are usually the same for each import definition as the default import definitions only determine the method used to link a set of answers to a specific token. |

| - | When you select this option **or** when //the import file contains two sets of answer for the same token// and the previous option was not chosen then GemsTracker will also create a new token.

| This import method also checks for the specific answers in the import and their existence in the current token. E.g. if you import an XML file that contains multiple rows for the same token and the answers in the rows do not overlap, then all the answers will merge into a single set of answers. When they do overlap multiple tokens will be created. | This import method also checks for the specific answers in the import and their existence in the current token.
