Connect Asana

Connect Asana so a project goal moves as tasks are completed.

What you get from Asana #

• Goal progress from completed tasks in an Asana project.
• The project's tasks listed on the goal page.

Connect Asana #

1. In Settings, click Connections, then type Asana in Search connections.
2. On its row, click Connect. The row may say Operator access: auto-track uses that same connection.
3. Sign in to Asana and approve access.

Track an Asana project #

A new Asana connection tracks through Describe a value, where you say the number you want in words. The item picker below appears only on a Asana connection made before that change.

1. Open a Project or Metric goal and click Auto-track. Under Ready to track, pick Asana.
2. If the dialog opens on Describe a value in Asana, say what to measure, check the preview and today's value, then click Connect. That finishes the task. Otherwise, continue with the next step.
3. Pick the project and click Continue.
4. Under Track progress, pick one. A Project goal offers Completed tasks. A Metric offers Tasks completed, as a count or a percent.
5. Next to Connect, pick how often to refresh: Every 30 minutes (the default), Hourly, Every 4 hours, Daily or Weekly. Then click Connect.

After you connect Asana #

Brev reads the value at the frequency you picked. At Every 30 minutes, it reads every 30 minutes from 7 AM to 7 PM on weekdays (Sydney, New York or San Francisco time). Otherwise, it reads every 4 hours.

• To read it now, click the refresh icon on the goal's connection. An unchanged value adds no check-in.
• To see what it reads, hover over the connection or click its gear. The gear also changes the frequency.
• You can still add your own check-ins, for example to explain a change.

On a Project goal, the goal page also lists the tracked project's issues, each with its status.
