[Bug] Copy different text depending on where you copy the ticket link.

I’m using Mac OS 14.5, Chrome version 133.0.6943.142, and I’m using Asana as a web app.

There is a difference between right-clicking the ‘Copy task link’ feature on a ticket at the board level and accessing the ticket detail page to copy it.

Right-click to copy: https://app.asana.com/0/0/123456789101112
Copy from the detail page: https://app.asana.com/0/121110987654321/123456789101112

With this issue, I got the result that the page is inaccessible with a 400 error on the notion page.

Hi @김희명 , welcome to the forum :wave:
Just curious, which of the two links are you having the issue with?

This happens with links obtained by right-clicking.
This is what it looks like in the output from the notion associated with Asana.

Hi,

(FYI I moved your post to the English Forum > Tips and Tricks forum section, as the English Forum > Developers & API section is for third-party developers developing apps with the Asana API.)

Yes, what you’re seeing in the different links is the expected Asana behavior, not a bug: a link where the second parameter is not 0 represents a link to a task in a particular project, where the project id is that second parameter. A link where the second parameter is 0 represents a link to just the task itself.

Both are valid links assuming you have access to the project. I don’t know the details of how Notion might be interpreting things, but if the link with the project id leads to an error whereas the task-only link works, then it’s likely the user at the time doesn’t have access to the project.

(Also note that Asana is in the process of changing its link format; the links you showed will still work in the future, but very soon you’ll see a different format as described here.)

@김희명 One good test you can do is: copy the non-working link out of Notion and paste it in your browser’s address bar.

If it successfully displays the task from there, then the issue is within Notion and how it’s handling the link.

If it doesn’t, then it’s likely an access issue with having access to the project.
