Overview
Moving from Azor to monday.com is a structural migration compounded by Azor's lack of a public API. Without bulk extraction endpoints, we rely on CSV exports from individual project views and structured screen-based sampling to scope the dataset before migration. We map Azor's flat task lists into monday.com's Board-Group-Item hierarchy, converting each Azor project to a monday.com Board and each task to an Item. Azor tasks with no sub-task or dependency model flatten cleanly into monday.com Items; if the source team used hierarchical workarounds, we flag each flattened relationship for manual reconstruction. Comments and file attachments do not export from Azor and are documented as permanent data gaps before migration begins. We deliver a written inventory of any Azor workflow patterns for your admin to rebuild using monday.com's automation builder, which is gated at the Standard plan ($12/seat). Timeline and cost scale with total task count and the number of source projects requiring individual CSV extraction runs.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Azor object lands in monday Work Management, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Azor
Project
monday Work Management
Board
1:1Each Azor project maps to a monday.com Board. Project name, description, and creation date migrate as Board name, description, and created_at metadata. We create Boards in the target Workspace during migration. If the Azor project has folder or group labels, we store them as a Board tag or a custom column rather than a separate organizational layer since Azor's hierarchy is flat.
Azor
Task
monday Work Management
Item
1:1Azor tasks map directly to monday.com Items within the corresponding Board. Task title becomes Item name, task description becomes the Item's Description column, and task status maps to a Status column configured in monday.com to match Azor's status values (e.g. To Do, In Progress, Done). Due dates transfer to a Date column. Tasks with no assignee are left blank or assigned to a migration service account pending customer confirmation.
Azor
User
monday Work Management
Team Member
1:1Azor user display names and email addresses map to monday.com Team Members. We extract all users from Azor CSV exports and provision matching accounts in monday.com by email. Azor does not expose role or permission levels in any export format, so all migrated users receive standard member access; permission elevation is handled manually by the customer's monday.com admin post-migration.
Azor
Task Status
monday Work Management
Status Column
lossyAzor's fixed status set per project (To Do, In Progress, Done, or project-specific labels) maps to a monday.com Status column. We extract the distinct status values from each Azor project's export and configure them as labeled color-coded status options in monday.com. Non-standard or custom status values are flagged for manual review before import because Azor allows per-project status labels with no centralized taxonomy.
Azor
Due Date
monday Work Management
Date Column
1:1Due dates on Azor tasks migrate to a monday.com Date column. Dates are preserved in ISO 8601 format through the extraction and import pipeline. Tasks with no due date are migrated with a null Date column value. If the source team uses a due-date-only field without start dates, we do not create a Timeline (start-end range) column; a separate Timeline column requires customer input on start-date logic.
Azor
Tag
monday Work Management
Tag or Label Column
lossyAzor tags migrate to monday.com Tags. We extract tags as a comma-separated string from Azor's export and split them into monday.com tag labels. Tags that do not already exist in the destination Board are created automatically during import. If the customer prefers a dedicated Labels column (dropdown or multi-select) over tags, we configure this during scoping and remap accordingly.
Azor
Task Assignment
monday Work Management
Person Column
1:1Azor tasks with a single assignee map to a monday.com Person column. We resolve each assignee by email against the migrated Team Member list. Tasks with no assignee are flagged in the migration report. Tasks assigned to users not found in the Team Member list are held in a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to map manually before the final import phase.
Azor
Project Groups
monday Work Management
Board Groups
lossyAzor does not have a nested group structure beyond flat task lists; each project is a single flat list. We map each Azor project to a monday.com Board with a single default Group (e.g. 'Group 1'). If the source Azor data reveals informal groupings (e.g. tasks prefixed with project phase names), we create monday.com Groups from those prefixes and assign items accordingly during scoping.
Azor
Comments
monday Work Management
Not migrated
1:1Azor does not expose comments in any documented export or API format. This is a permanent data gap. We include a pre-migration checklist item requiring the customer to acknowledge comment loss and, if possible, export comments manually before the engagement begins. We cannot import comments from Azor by any automated or screen-based method.
Azor
Attachment
monday Work Management
Not migrated
1:1Azor does not expose file attachments in any documented export mechanism. Uploaded files associated with tasks cannot be retrieved for migration. We flag this gap in the pre-migration scope document and recommend the customer downloads any critical attachments manually before migration begins.
Azor
Custom Fields
monday Work Management
Custom Column
1:1Azor does not document a custom field layer. Any customer-specific attributes stored in text fields, notes, or custom columns in the Azor source must be identified during scoping and manually mapped to monday.com's 29 column types. We request a field map from the customer before import so that text attributes map to Text columns, numeric attributes to Number columns, and date attributes to Date columns rather than requiring post-migration rework.
Azor
Time Tracking
monday Work Management
Not migrated
1:1Azor does not expose time-tracking data in any documented export format. monday.com's Time Tracking column (available on Pro plan and above) cannot be populated from Azor data. If the customer relies on time tracking, they must configure it manually in monday.com post-migration.

Migration approach
Discovery and extraction scoping
We audit the source Azor account via CSV exports provided by the customer. We identify all active projects, total task counts, distinct status values per project, tag usage, user list, and assignee patterns. We confirm which fields are present in the CSV exports versus which require manual screen sampling. We produce a written scoping document listing every project, its record count, and the extraction method (CSV or manual), plus a data-gap acknowledgment for comments, attachments, and any custom fields stored in Azor text notes.
monday.com workspace and board structure design
We design the destination monday.com workspace. This includes creating Boards corresponding to each Azor project, configuring Status columns with the extracted status labels per Board, adding Date columns for due dates, Person columns for assignees, and any custom columns requested by the customer. We configure Board Groups based on any informal grouping patterns found in the Azor source. Workspace settings, team members, and permission groups are provisioned before any Item import begins.
User reconciliation and Team Member provisioning
We extract every distinct user from Azor's task exports (as assignee and creator fields) and match by email against the monday.com Team Member list. Users without an existing monday.com account are flagged in a reconciliation queue. The customer's monday.com admin provisions any missing accounts and confirms the correct permission level before Item import begins because monday.com Person columns require a valid Team Member to assign.
Task flattening and status mapping validation
We process the Azor CSV exports to flatten any informal sub-task patterns (e.g. tasks with 'parent task name > sub-task name' naming conventions) into individual Items. Status values are mapped to the corresponding monday.com Status column option per Board. Tags are split from comma-separated strings into monday.com tag labels. Due dates are normalized to ISO 8601 format. We run a dry-run import into the monday.com workspace and reconcile Item counts before the production import phase.
Production import and reconciliation
We run the production import into the configured monday.com workspace. Items are created in dependency order: Boards confirmed, then Items with resolved Person assignments and Date values. Each Board receives a reconciliation report comparing Azor task count to monday.com Item count. Assignee gaps (tasks assigned to unprovisioned users) and date mismatches are flagged for customer review. Comments and attachments are not imported and are confirmed as excluded per the pre-migration data-gap acknowledgment.
Cutover, automation inventory handoff, and post-migration support
We freeze the Azor CSV export as the source of record and run a final delta check for any tasks modified during the migration window. monday.com becomes the system of record once the customer confirms Item counts and sampling match expectations. We deliver the automation rebuild guide documenting any workflow patterns observed in Azor (status-change notifications, recurring task generation, deadline alerts) with the equivalent monday.com automation block recommendation. We support a 5-business-day post-migration window to resolve import errors. Rebuilding automations in monday.com requires the Standard plan or above and is handled by the customer's admin using our guide.
