Starting the import process generally takes 1 to 5 minutes. After you've confirmed the import, the actual importing time can vary between 1 minute to several minutes. This is entirely based on how much data you have in your Asana workspace as well as the rate limits of Asana's API.

How to start an Import from Asana

1. Start by finding the Import Projects button in your team dropdown menu

2. Select the projects you'd like to import. Each project in Asana will be its own Nifty project. You can align the users in the Asana project with current Nifty team members, or you can invite new members to join your project.
​
Specify if you'd like to move closed tasks and current files in your projects, and then complete the import!

Imports can take a while -- thanks for your patience!
