Convert Multiple Whiteboard Objects to Tasks

ClickUp needs a way to convert multiple objects into tasks at once.
Right now, we have to manually convert each node one by one, which kills the speed and flow of visual planning.
This single feature would save hours for teams who plan visually and would be a game-changer for adoption.

Thanks for sharing this idea Joseph Kelly. Making it easier to turn whiteboard items into tasks is definitely something we're thinking about.
Quick Q: would you always expect 1 task to be created per sticky note in your selection, or do you foresee use cases where creating one task encompassing all stickies would still be needed?
We're looking into giving Brain the ability to create tasks from objects on whiteboards as a way to give you this flexibility. E.g. select stickies and ask it to create one task per sticky, or one task considering all of them.
What do you think?

Hi Alex, This is a great question!
For me and my team, creating 1 task per sticky in bulk is a huge leap from having to create 100 tasks from stickies 1 by 1. However, in more detailed scenarios I could see the benefit of creating tasks, subtasks and even adding the details for each could be beneficial in bulk from whiteboards.
I would imagine that more detailed scenarios like this would be a good option for Brain.
