Import a Sprint Backlog Into Teamcamp From a Google Sheet

The Scenario

It's Sunday evening. The sprint starts tomorrow morning. Your scrum master has a Google Sheet backlog — 80 tasks, each with a task name, description, priority level, and assigned developer — and every single one needs to be inside the Teamcamp project before the team opens their boards at 9 AM.

The bad version:

  • Open Teamcamp, navigate to the right project, click "Add Task," type the name, paste the description, set the priority, pick the assignee from a dropdown — then do it 79 more times.
  • Lose your scroll position halfway through and spend five minutes figuring out where you left off.
  • Discover at task 60 that you've been assigning to the wrong developer because the dropdown auto-filled an old name.

The team's availability window for questions ends tonight. You are the only person who can fix this, and you have other things to do before midnight.

The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI

SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Google Sheet. It reads the backlog and creates every task in Teamcamp directly — no connector configuration, no import templates.

Paste this into the SheetXAI sidebar:

For each row in the 'Backlog' sheet — columns are Task Name, Description, Due Date, Priority — create a task in Teamcamp project ID shown in cell B1.

SheetXAI reads each row and submits a task creation call to Teamcamp for each one, passing the name, description, priority, and due date from your sheet. Task IDs are written back into column E so the team has a direct reference.

What You Get

  • All 80 tasks created in the Teamcamp project in a single operation.
  • Task names, descriptions, priorities, and due dates match the backlog sheet exactly.
  • Task IDs written to column E for cross-referencing or future updates.
  • Rows where a required field is missing surface an error note in column F — nothing silently skips.

What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready

Priority values in the sheet don't match Teamcamp's expected values

Read the 'Backlog' sheet. Column C has priority values: High, Medium, Low. Map these to Teamcamp priority levels before creating each task. Create a Teamcamp task for every row using the project ID in cell B1.

Some tasks are flagged as "Blocked" and should be skipped for now

Read the 'Backlog' sheet. Skip any row where column D says "Blocked." Create Teamcamp tasks for all other rows under project ID in cell B1, and note the skipped rows in column F.

Task names need to be prefixed with the sprint number from cell A1

Read the 'Backlog' sheet. Prepend the sprint label from cell A1 to each task name in column A. Then create a Teamcamp task for every row under the project ID in cell B1.

One-shot: normalize, filter, and load the full backlog

In the 'Backlog' sheet: skip rows where column D is "Blocked," map priority values in column C from High/Medium/Low to Teamcamp's expected levels, prepend the sprint label from cell A1 to each task name, and create a Teamcamp task for every remaining row under the project ID in cell B1. Write task IDs to column E and any errors to column F.

Combining prep and action in one prompt means your sheet stays the source of truth without requiring a separate cleanup pass first.
