Bulk process import into Promapp

Hello,
Recently I've been tasked with a request to migrate 100+ processes from IBM Blueworks Live application into Promapp.
Unfortunately, Promapp doesn't offer bulk process import and our work will need to be done manually.
I'd like to request to add such functionality to the scope of next releases.
I believe that I'm not the only one who experienced a similar situation.
Imagine a company that stores all business processes as Visio diagrams (i.e. 500+) and has to import them manually to the application.

    Thank you very much for posting your feedback. At this time, we will not be adding this request to the near-term backlog, as we are focused on improving our search and process variation capabilities and delivering sequential approvals. However, we reevaluate requests every quarter and will reach out if priorities change. Please keep the feedback coming as it is critical for our longer-term planning.

    Thanks for the feedback. We do have functionality to import BPMN files however due to the complexity of those processes they do not always map nicely to a simple Promapp process. The result is that many items imported will be created as activities.

    However we'll open this up for voting and monitor interest from other clients.

    I wouldn't recommend using the Visio import tool either as it takes more time to fix them process once it is uploaded than it does to start from scratch.
