Import and Export

Bring your work over from another app, and take it with you anytime

Export a project from your old app and choose the file here: Excel or CSV, Asana, Trello, monday.com, Todoist, Jira or a BusyBee.Day export. Match columns and values, look at the first tasks as they will appear, and start. Nothing is written until you start, and an import can be undone.

Match the columns and check the values before anything is written.

Quick answer

What is import and export?

Switching apps should not mean starting over. Import brings your work with its structure, and Export means your data is always yours to take.

How it works

How to import your work

Four steps, and nothing is written until the last one.

  1. 1

    Choose the source

    Open Import and pick where your file comes from, then choose the file.

  2. 2

    Match it

    Say what each column is, and how statuses and priorities map.

  3. 3

    Check and start

    See the first tasks as they will look, choose what to include and start the import.

  4. 4

    Review

    Open the tasks, download the report, or undo the import.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which apps can I import from?

Files from Asana (CSV), Trello (JSON), monday.com (Excel, in beta), Todoist (CSV), Jira (CSV), any Excel or CSV file, and BusyBee.Day exports.

Can I undo an import?

Yes. Undo import sends everything it created to the Trash, where it can still be restored.

Is importing limited by my plan?

Every plan can import, within its usual limits on tasks, projects and custom fields. An import over a limit is refused whole, never cut in half.
