Asana

Asana as a task primitive in your workflows

Asana on Tiny Command takes an asymmetric shape: one trigger and fifteen actions. The trigger, Task Created, fires the moment a task lands in a project you've authorized. That single event covers the cases most workflows need (new task → enrichment → fan-out), and downstream actions cover the rest of the lifecycle without needing additional triggers. The actions: Create Task, Create Subtask, Update Task, Delete Task, Add Comment, Add Tag to Task, Create Section, Search Tasks, Get Task, plus the read endpoints for Projects, Sections, Tags, Workspaces. Authorize via Asana's OAuth at the workspace level. The integration respects Asana's project membership, workflows only see projects the connected user has access to. Common patterns: a Typeform feature request creates an Asana task in the right project with tags, a Linear bug auto-creates a corresponding QA task in the QA team's Asana board, or a Calendly customer-onboarding booking spawns a checklist of subtasks for the success team.

Triggers

Workflows start when Asana does.

1 real-time trigger, each backed by a webhook subscription. Events arrive within seconds and you don't have to set up polling.

Actions

Do anything Asana can do, from a workflow.

Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's an AI output, a form field, or a search result.

ActionWhat it does
Add CommentAdds a comment (story) to an Asana task. Used for automation activity logs, AI summary notes, or status broadcasts.
Add Tag to TaskAdds an existing tag to an Asana task. Used to tag based on AI classification or to auto-categorize incoming tasks.
Create SectionCreates a new section in an Asana project. Sections organize the task list (or columns in board view); useful for templated project scaffolding.
Create SubtaskCreates a subtask under an existing Asana task with name, assignee, due date, and notes. Used for templated work breakdowns.
Create TaskCreates a new task in an Asana project with name, notes, assignee, due date, section, tags, and custom fields. The standard write action for piping forms or external tickets into Asana.
Delete TaskDeletes a task from Asana by GID. Moves to trash for 30 days before permanent deletion.
Get ProjectRetrieves an Asana project by its GID with name, owner, team, members, and custom field settings. Used to enrich a trigger or render a project picker.
Get TaskRetrieves an Asana task by its GID with name, notes, assignee, due date, project memberships, tags, and custom fields. The standard read after a trigger fires with an ID.
List ProjectsLists projects in an Asana workspace, optionally scoped to a team. The standard first step for any flow that needs a project_gid.
List SectionsLists sections in an Asana project with their names and order. Used to populate a section picker before creating or moving a task.
List TagsLists all tags in an Asana workspace. Used to populate a tag picker or to resolve a name to a tag GID.
List TasksLists tasks in an Asana project. Used for sprint reviews, daily digests, or warehouse exports.
List WorkspacesLists all workspaces accessible to the authenticated Asana user. Required first step for any cross-workspace automation.
Search TasksSearches for tasks in an Asana workspace using text and filters (assignee, project, tag, completed-on, due-on, custom fields). The right tool for cross-project queries.
Update TaskUpdates fields on an existing Asana task: name, notes, assignee, due date, completed, or custom fields. Only the fields you pass are changed.

Before you build

Three things worth knowing.

Filter at the trigger

Tiny Command counts a run the moment a trigger fires. Filtering early means only matching events spend your usage budget.

Authorize once, reuse anywhere

Connect Asana once and every workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. You don't have to re-auth per workflow.

No JSON to read

Every Asana field shows up in the visual picker for downstream nodes. The raw payload is there for power users, optional for everyone else.

FAQ

Questions about the Asana integration.

If we missed yours, ping support. We usually reply within an hour.

How do I connect Asana to Tiny Command?
Open the Tiny Command workflow builder, drop in a Asana node, and click Connect. Authorize Asana once and any workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. Most teams finish the connection in under two minutes.
What Asana triggers does Tiny Command support?
Tiny Command supports 1 real-time Asana trigger, including "New Task". Each trigger fires within seconds of the event happening in Asana.
What Asana actions can I run from a workflow?
15 Asana actions are available out of the box, covering project management operations like "Add Comment". Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's a search result, an AI output, or a form field.
Is the Asana integration real-time?
Yes. New Task and every other Asana trigger uses webhooks or push subscriptions, so workflows fire within seconds of the event in Asana rather than on a polling schedule.
Do I need to write code to use Asana with Tiny Command?
No. Every Asana trigger and action is fully configurable from the visual workflow builder. For edge cases that aren't covered, drop in a custom HTTP node and call any Asana API endpoint directly.
How much does the Asana integration cost?
There's a free tier you can start on without a credit card. Higher run volumes and team features come with paid plans. The Asana integration itself has no per-app surcharge.
