What Records Can Migrate from Asana
When you decide to migrate from one platform to another, it’s essential to check what types of entities can be transferred so that you don’t lose some crucial data. As for Asana, Migration Wizard makes it possible to export:
- Custom field values
- Tasks (together with Comments and Attachments)

Prepare for Migration from Asana
This process won’t take a lot of time, though it is essential to take some important steps to ensure the migration runs smoothly. So, check the following before proceeding with the migration process:
1. If you have created an account on your target platform. You need to know where to transfer your data. You can check out the list of supported platforms on our website to see if your preferred software is available;
2. If you have crucial access information for both source and target platforms. Without it, our Wizard Migration tool won’t be able to create a connection with the project management software;
