English Forum News Release Notes

Hi Community, Happy Friday!

Please find below our latest Release Notes. If you have any questions or feedback, let us know in the comments!

  • (Personal) Notes and uploaded files on teams: Notes and attachments are now visible only to members of a team, rather than anyone who can see a team. Organization members will continue to be able to see notes and attachments associated with public teams, and there is also no change to behavior on private teams
  • (Personal) Asana for Google Chat in Google Workspace: The Asana for Google Chat app has been rebuilt into the existing Asana for Google Workspace add-on so customers can install a single app that covers Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Chat with an updated Chat experience.
  • (Personal) Asana Gemini Workspace Connector: With the Asana connector to Gemini in Google Workspace, you can search for Asana tasks and project information directly in Gemini.
  • (Starter) Rule builder improvements: The rule builder now shows clearer project context and a combined error and warning state, with indicators that highlight specific issues so users can troubleshoot rule setup more quickly.
  • (Starter) Reference custom fields in rules - action: Rules can now use reference custom fields in actions so automations can update or connect related work based on linked records.
  • (Starter) Adding more currency options: Custom fields and budget fields now support additional currencies, including Swiss franc (CHF), Hong Kong dollar (HKD), Swedish krona (SEK), Singapore dollar (SGD), Philippine peso (PHP), and Indian rupee (INR), so teams can track amounts in more local currencies.
  • (Starter) Rule execution progress: Rule execution progress now appears on tasks while automations run, giving users real time visibility into whether a rule is still processing or has finished.
  • (Advanced) Portfolio duplication: Portfolios can now be duplicated so teams can reuse existing portfolio structures and views instead of rebuilding them from scratch.
  • (Advanced) Goal notification management: Goal members can now manage goal notifications for each goal. You can choose whether to send notifications when inviting collaborators and whether to receive status update and comment notifications by default.
  • (Advanced) Filtering resource management views by custom fields on users (workload, capacity planning): Workload and capacity planning views now support filtering by user custom fields. This helps teams focus resource planning on people with specific skills, locations, or attributes.
  • (Enterprise) Restricting messages sent to teams to respect team permissions: Team admins can now control who is allowed to send messages to a team so they can limit broad announcements to team admins and reduce notification noise for members.

I see the conditions based on this are simply “is empty” or “is not empty,” while actions can add to, set to, or clear. I was hopeful this might be a workaround resolution to a feature request we’re interested in (ability to set a condition in rules: Check If task is in project), but it isn’t. I can’t check if the reference field contains or does not contain a specific project and take action accordingly. Hoping for this functionality at some point to create better, efficient connections between multiple flows where tasks are multi-homed along the way.

Hi @Elizabeth_Lumsden, thank you for the feedback! To be transparent, this isn’t on our short-term roadmap yet.

I’d definitely recommend upvoting the feature request topic you mentioned and sharing this specific example there. Our Forum Leaders often have great workarounds for multi-homing logic that could help you achieve this more efficiently while we wait for native updates. :slightly_smiling_face:

When you upvote a Product Feedback topic, you’ll automatically receive an update if the status changes!

I contributed ideas there in Oct. 2025. It looks like @Phil_Seeman has figured out this functionality with Flowsana (shared here in that post, but we aren’t adding third-party integrations). Maybe you can lean on him when Asana developers are ready to prioritize it. We’re savvy with workarounds, but it’s sure tedious. We’ll keep our eye out for this to roll out someday!
