Metabase relies on [Entity IDs](#metabase-uses-entity-ids-to-identify-and-reference-metabase-items) to figure out which items to create or overwrite, and what are the relationships between items. When importing into an instance that already has some content in it, keep in mind:
- If you import an item with an `entity_id` that doesn't exist in your target Metabase, Metabase will create a new item.
- If you import an item with an `entity_id` that already exists in your target Metabase, the existing item will be overwritten.
In particular, this means that if you export a question, then make a change in an exported YAML file — like rename a question by directly editing the `name` field — and then import the edited file back, Metabase will try to apply the changes you made to the YAML.
