Hi all,

I’m currently trying to import from linear but current implementation map linear project to modules in plane.so.

What’s the best way to match the linear project into plane.so project?

So far what I’ve found is to export each module’s tasks into csv, create new projects to contain those tasks and import each csv into the new project. Are there any better way to do it?

thank you

You’re right. Currently the Linear importer maps Linear projects to Plane modules. This was intentional when we built the importer because Plane didn’t have Teamspaces at the time, and modules were the closest equivalent to Linear’s project structure within a team.

We’re planning to update the importer to better align with our current architecture, but I don’t have an ETA yet.

For now, your CSV approach works. Alternatively, you could use the [API](https://developers.plane.so/api-reference/introduction) or [MCP Server](https://developers.plane.so/dev-tools/mcp-server) to move work items between projects programmatically as that might be faster.
