Hi everyone,
I'm having trouble with importing Card Trees.
For some imports I can see that Mingle detects the different Trees in the copied xls data.
For some others only one tree is recognised. After the first preview the actual compete import does not show "Schedule" in the combo box
The question I have: How does Mingle recognise the different card trees?
What are the exact conditions that have to be met in order to have the tree elements been recognised.
In my case it's about the Schedule tree (from the Scrum Template 3.3) that is not been picked up.
The Roadmap however is been recognised.
The cards themselves are been found and imported, but the relations are not. (e.g. the Story has no Sprint or Release relation)
regards, Johan

Without the pictures, I can't figure out the solution. Can someone please add a note to show how it's done?
Hi Dawn,
The solution is documented on Mingle online help now. Please checkout this page. The section of "Import cards to a tree" is at the bottom. Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Huimin
not seeing the attachments here. Can someone possibly post pictures of the solution? Thank you.
sorry for the inconvenience.
They are all in the attachment now.

Perfect, thanks for the screen shots!
got feedback from the support department:
Regarding the Release and Sprint not being imported with your story, this is because, you need to check the tree that you want to import to.
For e.g:
If I have the following tree:
Tree name: Planning Tree
Tree Structure: Release -> Sprint -> Story
See Picture 3
When I import data, in my excel sheet, the excel should looks something like this
See Picture 4
When you copy the data and paste it in the import screen, you will be taken to the import preview section. Make sure that you select the appropriate tree name here as the data is imported depending on that. By default the Tree name is set to "none" this means that any tree related data is ignored during import.
See Picture 6
better now?
I can see them, and they have an external URL. Maybe you're behind a firewall.
Doesn't look like your images were attached: i.e. Picture 3.png, Picture 4.png and Picture 6.png. I would really like to see your examples.
Still can't see them, but I do see the links now. But the links are to a Google Mail account that is not sharing the images, https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=f31e26f940&view=att&th=13344515163c312f&attid=0.3&disp=emb&realattid=ii_133444d289609632&zw.
