+You can use the ``:ids:`` option to import only the needs with the given ids
+(as a comma-separated list).
+This is useful if you want to import only a subset of the needs from the JSON file.

 filter
 ~~~~~~
 
 You can use the ``:filter:`` option to imports only the needs which pass the filter criteria.
+This is a string that is evaluated as a Python expression,
+it is less performant than the ``:ids:`` option, but more flexible.
 
 Please read :ref:`filter` for more information.
