How to evaluate an import preview

A preview helps catch mapping and scope errors before writing data. A successful preview alone does not prove complete contextual accuracy.

How to apply it

Prepare a small representative package in Taskending’s supported JSON format. Inspect records to be created, matched or rejected. Correct identity, status and project mappings before a broad import. Verify an independent backup beforehand.

A concrete example

Include a child issue, a support record with comments, a closed-sprint issue and an attachment reference. Testing only simple title-and-description records hides the difficult parts.

What to watch for

Data can change between preview and application. Version the source package and mapping decisions. Loading more records will not repair a duplicate key or incorrect user match.

How to check the outcome

Compare source and target examples after rehearsal. Verify repeat-run behavior and that intended users can reach the imported context.

How company, project and team differ

A company workspace defines an access boundary, a project organizes work context and a team organizes shared planning. They are more than interchangeable folder names.
