Set up an Asana connection

Who can use this feature?

• Organization administrators.
• Available for Essentials, Accelerate, and Enterprise.

Set up an Asana connection in the platform so your team can send data from Advanced Projects and Tasks to an Asana project. With an Asana connection, you can push tasks into Asana and manage their progress there. There’s no limit to the number of issue tracking connections you can have in your organization, so if you have multiple Asana instances or use multiple issue tracking tools, you can connect each of them to the platform.
