Track time on your Asana tasks

Measured hours next to the tasks in your Asana projects.

Worktivity connects an Asana project to a Worktivity project and pulls its tasks in, so tracked time lands on the work your team already plans in Asana. Importing is read-only: your Asana tasks and projects are never changed. The one thing that can go back is tracked time. If you turn on Write time back, Worktivity adds it as time tracking entries on the matching Asana task. It is off by default and only ever adds entries.

Setup

How to connect Asana

A few minutes in Worktivity. No engineering ticket, no script to run.

  1. Create a Worktivity account

    Sign up and invite the people who work off your Asana projects.

  2. Connect Asana in Workspace settings

    In Worktivity, open Workspace settings, then Integrations, and select Connect on the Asana card. Only the Owner and Co-owner can do this.

  3. Approve and link a project

    Approve the access on Asana's own screen and pick the Asana workspaces to use if you have several. Then open Manage and use Connect project to link an Asana project to a new or existing Worktivity project.

  4. Start tracking

    The Asana tasks show up in that Worktivity project and refresh regularly, or on request with "Sync now". Time tracked against them lands there.

What you get

Why teams turn this on

Pull the tasks of an Asana project into a project and track time on them. Importing is read-only; an optional Write time back switch adds the time you track to Asana, depending on your Asana plan.

  • Completion and due dates stay in step

    Tasks flow in on their own. When a task is completed or reopened in Asana, or its due date changes, Worktivity follows on the next sync. A change you make in Worktivity stays until Asana changes that field again. Subtasks do not come in, only tasks added directly to the project. When time is written back, only the time of matched people is sent; time from anyone not matched is not written until they are matched, and then only the last few days are.

  • People matched by email

    When Asana shares an email address, people are matched to your employees automatically. Anyone Worktivity cannot match is marked "Needs review" for you to decide.

  • Time back to Asana, if you want it

    Importing never changes your Asana tasks. Only if you turn on Write time back, which is off by default, does Worktivity add the time tracked from then on as entries under the account that made the connection. Asana's own time tracking depends on your Asana plan.
