How do I fetch an Asana project by GID?

Short answer: You can get project in Asana by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Asana Get Project action to a workflow, map its 2 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about Get Project.

What does the Get Project action do in Asana?
Retrieves 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.
What inputs does Get Project require?
Required: Project GID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Asana returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Asana returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does Get Project support batch operations?
Run Get Project inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Asana's rate limits.
