Option to Import Asana Projects to Lists instead of Folders
Angelo Tartanian
When importing from Asana, Asana Projects get mapped to Folders, even though they are more like Lists. This results in a Folder with the name of the Asana Project with a single List in it called "Imported from Asana". This is a completely unnecessary folder structure. We should have the option in the import process to simply import Asana Projects directly as folderless Lists in a Space.

Absolutely. This has completely delayed my moving over to Clickup. I have hundreds of Projects which need to be Lists under Clickup. It would take me 10 hours to copy the Folder name and manually rename every list from "Imported to Asana", move the list under a folder which represents the Asana Team etc.

To add to this, it would be nice if we could select to import Asana Projects to ClickUp Lists > Asana Sections to ClickUp Tasks > Asana Tasks to ClickUp Subtasks (of above Tasks), up to as many levels of subtasks available (Asana has 5).
I have a client considering switching to ClickUp from Asana and such an ability would be very beneficial to their project migration.

After importing from asana, the imported list is not visible in folder view level. SEE ATTACHED IMAGE

We will soon be releasing an update to the Asana Import process that will address this and make importing from Asana clearer and easier! 🎉

PLEASE some solution to this, I currently can't import from Asana because of the lack of one.

I agree with this. I have more than a dozen lists per folder.
After the import, I have to go through each list and click on 'Move out of folder'.
I have two spaces, so that's 24 steps that I have to do after the import.
These steps are not required.
Like Angelo said, we are imported directly into a space. The step to import the lists into folders doesn't make sense.
Let's think about this. Each 'heading' in Asana equates to a 'List' in Click-up. So why import it into a parent 'folder'?
Thanks.
