Do not say Spira Project anywhere please.
I could have made those changes myself after a merge, but also wanted Bruno to review to make sure the data sync explanations match his expectations.

Spira PRODUCT not Project - update in other relevant locations too

It's in the different warning. For us, it shows up as: warning "Avoid Syncing Multiple External Tools to the Same Spira Project for the Same Artifact"

The technical info we are adding is accurate. I just flagged a small inconsistency and please scan the proposed chages for the word "project".
When it referes to external projects, it's OK, but for Spira, our docs should say "product"

| Having two dataSync plugins of the same type active for the same Spira product and/or external project will lead to duplicate data in one or both applications, depending on your configuration. To avoid this issue, it's recommended to use only one plugin for each combination of Spira product and external project. |

Here, we are contradicting ourselves. We should say:
Having two dataSync plugins of the same type active for the same Spira product and/or external project without careful isolation will lead to duplicate data in one or both [...]

|
||
| Do not configure multiple external projects (e.g., two different Jira projects coming from the same source URL) or multiple DataSync plugins to sync the same artifact type (such as Requirements, Incidents, or Tasks) into a single Spira product. | ||
|
|
||
| While Spira allows multiple DataSync plugins and project mappings to be active globally, mapping multiple external projects to the same Spira product for the same artifact creates severe risks of data overwrites, mapping ID collisions, and infinite update loops. |

It's OK to say Jira projects, but we should say Spira products
