Project importing and exporting

This article covers how to import tasks to projects in Asana and how to export projects using JSON or CSV.

Import a project to Asana

You can import tasks to a project in Asana using CSV.

Select the project header drop-down menu next to your project‘s name, hover over Import then choose CSV.

Follow the instructions provided, choosing the project to which you'd like to add your CSV file and the organization it lives in.

To import projects or tasks into Asana, you can also duplicate the tasks you’d like to move to Asana as a list, and paste that list into a project. Asana will automatically create a new task after each line break.

Note that our Support team cannot offer assistance with third-party tools as they are not developed by Asana.

Aside from projects, you can also export a Search View or your My Tasks.
