Hi,

I am currently managing my tasks in Toodledo, and I'm considering switching to Doit.im.

Do you have an import utility to assist in the migration of data into doit.im?

Toodledo can export data to a CSV or text file.

Thanks,

Yaki.

We feel so sorry. Importing is not supported in Doit.im.

But you may try the following way to get your scheduled items into Doit.im.

First, sync data on Toodledo to Google Cal and then make Google Cal synced with Doit.im.

We just found that data in Toodledo can be synced to Google Cal.

Shall you need any help or have additional questions, please feel free to contact us.

Thank you for your support.

Michelle, thank you for our response.

I implemented your idea above, and I was able to add the toodledo tasks to Google Calendar. I was then able to add the toodledo calendar to Doit, and synced - and the tasks for the next 30 days are now in Doit.

Is there a way to get ALL the tasks from Google Calendar, and not just the tasks from next 30 days?

We are so sorry to tell you that there is no way to get all the tasks from Google Calendar. :(

Later, we will consider the "Import" feature. We will spend time doing some research on it. If convenient, could you please send us the file exported from Toodledo. Task properties are different among different produces, so the first thing we need to do is researching how to display tasks from Toodledo in Doit.im.

Thank you for your feedback.

Hi Michelle,

My task list is in Hebrew so I doubt that it will be helpful to you. You can create a free account in Toodledo and play around with creating a few tasks and export them to a CSV file via their utility.

It is important for you to implement an import/export utility in Doit for two reasons:
1. To facilitate the migration of users to your product.
2. To ensure them that should they want to backup or move their data they can always safely do so.

The ability to safeguard the information is an important aspect of the GTD methodology, which requires you to empty your mind of all the task information into a safe storage system that you can trust. Part of that trust is being able to backup your information and export it.

@Yaki

We are now doing some research on how to realize the "import/export" feature, and will try our best to support it much sooner.

Thank you for your feedback and support.
