I can accept to skip migration of atrticle , with ID exist in site B (new site). e.g. article ID lower then 300 does not migrate

For more information :
I setup site A and B in same server. Site B (new site) can access MySQL database of site A (old site)
I import from site B with 'remote database connection'

Hello,
Site B (new site) have some article already created. They have use article ID (for example , last ID is 300)

I want to move article from site A to B. I want to keep existing site B (new site) document.I don't want to replace content of existing article in site B (new site)

RO CSVI checks for an article base on title or alias and catid or category_path. If these values of the articles in Site A are different from that in Site B then the import will create new articles. Are the values of same or different on both sites?

Instead of skipping rows based on ID, in import template settings on File tab set Overwrite existing data to No, save the template and run the import. This option will skip the import of existing articles and will not update the values. Import will only create new articles.

Hello,
Yes, you can use Overwrite existing data to No even with database as source. Let me know on how that goes.
Kind regards,

Yes the alias and catid combination. RO CSVI uses these fields to select matching record from database. On new site if alias is different then import will create new articles.
