I will be able to upload multiple objects at a time as an Admin using Kickstart. Its skeptical process even for an Admin as it might take couple of days to validate the data and import it where it actually takes couple of hours for an user to create 50 basic tasks.

There is no workaround for non admins to bulk create projects. For tasks, you can just create multiple tasks if you declare them as recurring tasks. But I’m assuming you want to upload tasks from an external excel which is also not possible. Easiest way would be to get your access upgraded to a System Admin and do it via kickstarts.

I am a system admin already. But many of our executive users are looking for Bulk upload/Bulk creation option to enter multiple tasks at once to save some time.
