Using "to be" after "what"

Hello everybody!
Could you help me, please?

Is it grammatical to use such a construction?

"What's important is what are you doing."

Thanks!

I'd say:

either: What's important is what you are doing.
or: What's important is: what are you doing?

It doesn't sound right to me. What's important is what you are doing is the expected word order.

"What's important is what are you doing." not correct written English
What's important is 'What are you doing?' correct
