FAQ

Questions about GitHub + Asana.

How do I create a GitHub issue when an Asana task moves to "In Dev"?

Asana Task Updated filtered to section = "In Dev" → GitHub Create Issue with title and body from the Asana task → Asana Update Task with the issue URL in a custom field. The task and issue stay linked.

Can I mirror GitHub PR-merged events back into Asana?

Yes. GitHub PR Merged trigger → look up the Asana task by issue URL → Update Task to set section = "Shipped" and write the merge date. Stakeholder views auto-reflect engineering progress.

How do I map Asana assignees to GitHub usernames?

Maintain a small lookup table mapping asana email → github username. Pass the matched username as the assignees array on Create Issue. Validate the username exists to avoid 422 errors.

Can I label GitHub issues based on Asana tags?

Yes. Pass Asana tags directly as GitHub labels on Create Issue. Labels must exist on the repo first; create missing labels via a one-time provisioning workflow.

How do I post a daily GitHub PR summary to Asana?

Scheduled: list open PRs older than 3 days via GitHub Search Issues → create or update Asana tasks in a "Stale PRs" project with the PR title and author. Helps engineering managers run review pulse-checks.

Can I add GitHub commits as Asana comments?

Yes. GitHub Push trigger filtered to messages containing the Asana task ID (e.g., "ASANA-1234") → Asana Add Comment with the commit SHA and message. Engineers see progress in the PM tool without leaving git.
