Importing projects

In this article

Learn how to import projects into Zavimo using CSV and map fields during setup.

Import project

Zavimo allows you to import entire projects using a CSV file. This is helpful when migrating from other tools or setting up complex structures quickly.

How to import

To import a project:

  1. Click the + button at the level where you want the project to live (workspace, team, or folder).
  2. Choose Import project.
  3. Enter a project name and upload your .csv file.

Field mapping

Once your CSV is uploaded, you'll see a preview of the data and the option to map columns to fields.

  • Map to existing built-in fields (e.g. task name, due date, status)
  • Map to existing custom fields
  • Or create new custom fields directly in the dialog

Tips for a clean import

  • Make sure your CSV uses clear column headers
  • Use consistent data types (e.g. dates in the same format)
  • If using select or multi-select fields, match option names exactly

After import

  • All imported tasks will appear in the new project
  • You can edit or rearrange views and fields post-import
  • You can immediately start working with filters, views, and automations
Want to create a project without a CSV? Use the Create with AI option in the same dialog—just describe your project and Zavimo will generate it for you.
