# Project Import Action

With the help of the Project Import Action it is possible to import a project into Helmut via a workflow (stream) without using the "Add project" dialog. For example via a watch folder. The node itself triggers the streams whose trigger is "create\_project" and transfers the parameters required for this. These are:

* name
* File path (path to the project to be imported)
* group
* category
* template
* project type

The Project Import Action can be queried in every stream in which a project object is present.
