I’m making a new project which will use the same classes as another project, can I import a list of class names from one project to another?

Great question, not officially, but one workaround would be to export at least one example of each class from the first project and upload them to the new one with their annotations. You could put these in a “setup” batch and not add them to your dataset if you don’t want them to be part of training on the new project.
