Monday Importer

With the Monday Importer, you can import projects and their associated content from Monday.com into your awork workspace.

☝️ The import takes between 2 and 15 minutes, depending on the number of projects you're importing.

Benefits of Importing

Structured Migration: Import projects from Monday.com including tasks, subtasks, files, and comments into awork.

Flexible Mapping: Map Monday columns to custom fields and decide which content you want to include.

Transparent Progress: See your import progress and estimated remaining time directly in the import process.

Project Import

1. Paste the access token into the corresponding field and click "Next".

2. In the next step, you can select one or more projects you want to import.

3. You can also choose a project type and project template.

Note: These must be created in awork first.

4. In the next step, you can map columns to custom fields.

Note: Custom fields must be created in awork before you can use them in the import.

Important: A status must first be created in a project template before you can use it. Otherwise, the status won't be imported correctly.

5. Users assigned to a task must exist in both Monday.com and awork with identical email addresses.

6. If you don't want to map a column, select "Don't Map".

7. You can map subtasks separately. You can also choose whether you want to import comments.

Important: Imported comments won't be assigned to the person who commented, but rather to the person performing the import.

8. In the next step, you'll see a summary of your imported projects, tasks, subtasks, files, and comments. This may take a few seconds.

9. Then click "Start Import".

10. Your import will now start. You'll see the progress of your import and an estimated remaining time will be displayed.

11. If your import was successful, you'll see a confirmation message.

12. If the import fails, you'll also receive a notification. By clicking "Back to Home" you can restart the import process from the beginning.

13. In your awork workspace, you'll now see your imported project.
