# Import Phabricator tasks into a GitLab project
2020-05-22 03:08:28 +00:00
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/60562) in GitLab 12.0.

WARNING:
2020-11-24 03:09:18 +00:00
The Phabricator task importer is in
[beta ](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/gitlab-the-product/#beta ) and is
[**not** complete ](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/284406 ). It imports
only an issue's title and description. The GitLab project created during the import
process contains only issues, and the associated repository is disabled.
2019-04-23 14:27:01 +00:00
GitLab allows you to import all tasks from a Phabricator instance into
GitLab issues. The import creates a single project with the
repository disabled.
2021-05-10 00:10:37 +00:00
Only the following basic fields are imported:
2019-04-23 14:27:01 +00:00
- Title
- Description
- State (open or closed)
- Created at
- Closed at
2019-07-03 17:44:05 +00:00
## Users
The assignee and author of a user are deducted from a Task's owner and
author: If a user with the same username has access to the namespace
of the project being imported into, then the user will be linked.
