As the error indicates, when I am trying to import a Mule project, I am getting error saying "Missing mule-project.xml" but the source I received does not contain it. Is there any workaround for this please?

The doppelganger for this in Mule 4 is the Missing pom.xml.
Same solution suggested by Ivan can be followed in Mule 4 as well.
Just to add more value for this question to help newbies.
Never import an previously exported jar unless it's a mule deployable archive. The pom.xml file needs to be present on the top level of the directory.
If your pom.xml is not present in the root upper most level of the directory, then there is a possible folder manipulation occurred.
To make sure you indeed are using the correct code.
Always check your project structure.
Jar archives tends to manipulate your folder structure as per its needs to properly execute ; Just making them useful for deployments but useless for code rework.
Would it be possible to create a new project in the development environment, copy the mule-project.xml file from that to your old project and then, if needed, make manual modifications to the mule-project.xml in the old project?
