Asana Connector

The Asana Connector is an outbound protocol Connector that allows you to connect your BPMN service with Asana to get and create Asana tasks and projects.

Prerequisites​

To use the Asana Connector, you must have an Asana personal access token.

note

Use Camunda secrets to avoid exposing your Asana personal access token as plain text. Refer to our documentation on managing secrets to learn more.

Create an Asana Connector task​

To use the Asana Connector in your process, either change the type of existing task by clicking on it and using the wrench-shaped Change type context menu icon, or create a new Connector task by using the Append Connector context menu. Follow our guide to using Connectors to learn more.

Authentication​

In the Authentication section, provide a Personal access token. Read more on how to obtain it.
