Importing Wrike Tasks with Checklists.

When creating Wrike imports I am about to use some simple html such as <b> and <i> to style my task descriptions. I'm curious if I can also do that for checklists.

 

Is there I way to create Wrike imports with descriptions that contain checklists?  Basically, when I import my tasks, I want to be able to automatically import the checklists like the screenshot below. Currently, I have to import my task and then add the checklists into each task individually.

Hi Mary, thanks for reaching out! It's possible to use HTML tags to format text in the description field of Excel files, however, there's no way to create a checklist. Something which could help is creating numbered or bulleted lists, which can quickly be converted into a checklist in the imported task. Happy to hear your thoughts on this!

Bulleted list:

<ul>
<li>text</li>
<li>text</li>
<li>text</li>
</ul>

Numbered List:

<ol>
<li>text</li>
<li>text</li>
<li>text</li>
</ol>

Hey Anatasia, thank you for follow up on this! I'll try out the listed elements as you mentioned.  It would be an awesome feature if Wrike allowed for special formatting for checklist in Wrike imports. My company uses that functionality all the time!

Given that it's possible to create lists using HTML, is it also possible to create headers? Is there any documentation on this feature? Thank you!

Hi, was this implemented? We need to import tasks, and they must include checklists in their descriptions.
