Asana - List Tasks

↩ Part of the Asana integration.

Description

Lists the tasks of a project (GET /tasks?project={gid}) and returns them as an array. It is the entry point for batch automations: pull a project’s backlog, iterate it and act on each task.

The node returns the array directly in data, so it plugs straight into an iterator.

Configuration

Field	Type	Required	Description
`credentials_id`	credentials	Yes	Asana credential
`project_gid`	text	Yes	Project `gid`
`limit`	number	No	Maximum results. Defaults to `50`
`opt_fields`	text	No	Comma-separated fields to return (e.g. `name,completed`)

project_gid accepts dynamic variables. limit and opt_fields are sent as query parameters as-is.

Credentials

This module requires an Asana credential:

Field	Description
`access_token`	Personal Access Token from app.asana.com
`default_workspace_gid`	Optional fallback workspace

Output

data is the array of tasks (if the project is empty you get []):

[
  { "gid": "1209876543210987", "resource_type": "task", "name": "Follow-up: ACME Inc." },
  { "gid": "1209876543210988", "resource_type": "task", "name": "Prepare monthly report" }
]

Along with it, _meta:

{ "moduleVersion": "1.0.0", "success": true, "count": 2, "totalMs": 340 }

Usage Example

First 50 tasks of a project

{
  "credentials_id": "asana_ops",
  "project_gid": "1201234567890123"
}

With status and due date, for a report

{
  "credentials_id": "asana_ops",
  "project_gid": "1201234567890123",
  "limit": 100,
  "opt_fields": "name,completed,due_on,assignee"
}

Project taken from previous data

{
  "credentials_id": "asana_ops",
  "project_gid": "{{data.project_gid}}",
  "opt_fields": "name,completed"
}

Notes

By default Asana returns only gid, resource_type and name. If you need completed, due_on, assignee or anything else, you must ask for it in opt_fields.
limit caps what Asana returns in a single call — the node does not paginate automatically. For long projects, raise limit (Asana allows up to 100 per page) or filter upstream.
The list includes completed tasks. Filter them out downstream using the completed field.
A 404 or 400 on project_gid means the project does not exist or the token’s account has no access. Neither is retried.

Asana: Get task — read the full detail of one result.
Asana: Update task — update each task while iterating.
Asana: Create task — add a new task to the same project.
