Any importing of tasks available now?

Is there any current way to import lots of tasks into Asana via something like a CSV file?

Specifically, this will only work if I can get basically all of the following:

  1. Task Name
  2. Task Custom Field values
  3. Task Projects (each task WILL be homed in multiple projects and this is a MUST)
  4. Task Due date
  5. Task dependencies (based on the names of tasks being imported at the same time).
  6. Task Estimated Time

If I were able to upload/import these via CSV, it would knock hours off my week’s workload.

Currently I’m using a Task Template, with about a dozen “subtasks” in it with all those custom field values, Projects, and dependencies and relative due dates built in, but it requires me to manually rename each task, manually set the Estimated time, and manually adjust the due dates to fit reality. So, it’s a good workaround but far from ideal.

@Matt5 - yes, this is possible. See this help article for instructions.

Thanks, I will read the article, I appreciate the link there. It’s helpful to re-ask once in a while.
