New actions in workflows - Find Project and Find section

Find Project:

Easily search and retrieve an Asana project within your workflows.

What it does:

  • Locate projects by name and retreive its project ID
  • Use the project data in downstream steps

Why it matters:

  • No more hardcoding project IDs or saving in custom value picker.

Find sections:

Find sections within a specific Asana project to use the schema in subsequent actions. Outputs a section ID.

What it does:

  • Fetch sections and their ID inside a selected project
  • Dynamically route and create tasks in the specific section

Why it matters:

  • Earlier creating tasks in a specific section wasn't possible because users had to harcode the particular section ID, with this we can find it dynamically.

Use Cases

  • Using find project - Users can retrieve the project ID with the name instead of saving the project ID in custom value pickers.
  • Using the section ID from Find section action, you can pass this dynamically into "create task" to create a task in that particular section.
