Migrate a project in Project Plan 1 into Project Plan 3

Can anyone inform me how to migrate a project created in Project Plan 1 (SharePoint Online Plan) into Project Plan 3 (Project Web App)? Or isn't that possible?

It seems I cannot download or copy/paste a project from Plan 1 to Plan 3 at all….

Do I have to enter a complete new project in Project Plan 3?

  • Thank you Paul for the fast answer: at least a small help: export plan 1 to xls. Open new project in plan 3, copy the whole column with text, duration, date, etc etc. one by one and paste it into the new project. At least the gant chart, text etc can be used again including interdependency of different tasks. , Then adapt structure etc.

      Hi Paul_Mather, actually I have no idea 🙂

      Project 1 is on https://project.microsoft.com/etcetera en Project 3 is on "companyname".SharePoint.com.

      Issue is that I've figured out that Project 3 has more features (like saving as pdf) and Project 1 not. 

      I would like to do 2 things:

      1) import my already entered file in Project 1 in Project 3 (so I don't have to type over all the tasks)

      2) new file in Project 3 save/export somewhere else (e.g. Onedrive as a file or on a stick)

       

      Also, what is the difference between "companyname".SharePoint.com and "companyname"-my.SharePoint.com??
