I’m writing to request the restoration of the “Import Project” feature that allowed users to upload ZIP files directly from the v0 homepage.

The previous project upload is missing in the update kindly check and confirm.. thanku}

You can upload the project by selecting the zip file here

Can you check your console for any specific error logs?

Can you drag and drop your ZIP file directly into the chat input field?

I recommend that you try:

1. *Cleaning your ZIP file:* Make sure to exclude: `node_modules` and  `.next` folder or any large build artifacts
2. Clear your browser cache
Let us know how you get on!

I have download my project code and I try to import again, I dont know what need to be deleted.

![image|314x377](upload://iUqLtbU7SgZQHZnrdS8m3XKfIsM.png)

all files inside the code I have download from v0. 

If I need to exclude how I know the project will works?

Please add import button again to import the project correctly from the download.


Renatasilvano1995 6752 (@renatasilvano1995-67) · 2026-01-29

hello any update i’m cant use the att until the update of Import Project works again, I need it or I will cancel my plan


Pauline P. Narvas (@pawlean) · 2026-01-29

Can you zip the files into a folder, then drag and drop it to v0?


Renatasilvano1995 6752 (@renatasilvano1995-67) · 2026-01-29

Hey girl, are you having trouble understanding?

Download one of your code files generated by v0 in zip format and then try starting it again.

The system isn’t working; the button that used to select the zip file before the “import project” button read the zip file correctly, but now it doesn’t work.

Are you having trouble understanding the problem, or am I expressing myself poorly?

Do you want to jump on a call? I'd be happy to chat live :slight_smile:


Renatasilvano1995 6752 (@renatasilvano1995-67) · 2026-01-29

ok where, I will share the screen to you see.

I recorded this gif for you! Does that help? If not, happy to jump on a call. 

From your screenshot, just saying "start my project from the zip" doesn't help because it doesn't know what zip you're talking about :slight_smile: 

If you still see that message, let me know and I'll pass it onto our engineers. It is worth checking if you get that message ANYWHERE (not just in this flow)


Renatasilvano1995 6752 (@renatasilvano1995-67) · 2026-01-29

Look! I see the problem.


The button import project dont works correctly. Only moving the project into the new chat it works and show to open the project.

I have moved the project like you show in the image and it Works! Now the problem is other.
