Briefly describe (1-2 sentences) the Bug you’re experiencing:
In the left column in the “Teams” section, I can’t see the project listed. See the screenshot. Hope it’s not a feature.
This change has slowed down the productivity of me and my team drastically and no way to revert back to the old layout that I had carefully customized, sorted and color coded for years.
Hi everyone, thanks for reporting this, and sorry for the trouble! Let’s try to solve this together.
I just tried to reproduce this on my end, but I can see all projects below each team. Could you please confirm the information below so we can investigate further?
Is this issue appearing in the Desktop app, the browser version, or both?
If you access app.asana.com in a incognito window, does the issue persists?
Were you prompted to use a new version of Asana when you started experiencing this?
Do the projects you are expecting to see below the team are archived or completed?
Is this issue appearing in the Desktop app, the browser version, or both?
In both versions, I tried it with chrome, firefox and the app.
If you access app.asana.com in a incognito window, does the issue persists?
Yes.
Were you prompted to use a new version of Asana when you started experiencing this?
No, I just opened the browser version this morning.
Do the projects you are expecting to see below the team are archived or completed?
No, the projects are up and running. That being said I also do not see a way to access archived projects at all from what I can tell.
Thanks for confirming, @Sascha_Lohmüller! I’m escalating this issue to our Product Team, I will update this thread as soon as I have more information. Thanks for your patience!
Let me know if you have any other questions in the meantime
Hi all, I investigated this further and this update is actually part of an ongoing test we are running for new users in Asana. If you created an Organization or Workspace recently, for this reason, you see a different sidebar. This test will run until June 4 and depending on the results our Product Team will decide whether we will launch it to all users or not.
Thanks in advance for your feedback, I sent it to our Product Team, so they can consider it when analysing results after the test.
In the meantime, you should be able to see the projects you recently visited in the sidebar under the Projects section. You can also mark projects as favorite so they are always available in your sidebar:
We are using Asana for six years now, so it’s not very recent. Also: Tell the Product Team that this new sidebar is absolutely awful and will thrash our productivity and workflows for the next three weeks then
Yeah same here so we have been using Asana for years and this change has interrupted our work quite handsomely. Would be good to have a revert as soon as possible.
My organization is on Asana since 2018 and this change is impacting us. So this is not only for “new users”.
Based on your support team, this change is here to unclog the users menus … but having hundreds of “active” projects listed in a sub-menu is leading to the opposite.
To unclog a view, there are the “favorites” … and this one is driven by the user itself.
Testing with no “opt-out” button such a gigantic change should not be …
I having this same issue when I logged in this morning. I have created nothing new and am not a new user. None of the projects show in the sidebar, and they are now hard to find and impossible to view while working. What’s the status of fixing this bug?
This is really irresponsible of Asana to implement this system-wide change without any forewarning. My team supports Asana for our entire organization and we host sessions with our super users to review new content, however, this will likely impact productivity since it is such a drastic change to the User Experience for our users. From an organizational change management perspective significant changes to the UX need to be communicated in advance.
Seeing the same issue, it just lists the team members and the projects are not viewable unless you click into the team.
Is another one of your new “features” or a bug. The fact this is such a common question with your releases is concerning when companies are relying on your tool for production and work flow.
