Hi Asana Community!
I’m excited to share we’ve just launched a super simple way to turn Slack messages into Asana tasks with just an emoji reaction!
Here’s how it works:
- One-click task creation: Simply react to any Slack message with
emoji to instantly create an Asana task.
Context preserved: The message content and any thread replies are automatically included in your task description - Seamless workflow: Tasks appear directly in your My Tasks, so you never lose track of important work
- Perfect for teams: Great for request tracking, work intake, project management, and team collaboration
Follow these steps to get started:
- Open the channel details by clicking the three dot icon on the top right corner or clicking the channel name
- Access the Integrations tab
- Select Add apps to add the Asana app
- Once the app is added, you can start adding the
emoji to create an Asana tasks - Please note this feature is only available for public channels.
This feature is perfect for those moments when someone shares something important in Slack and you think “I need to remember to do this!” - now you can capture it instantly without switching apps or losing context.
As always, please feel free to share your thoughts and feedback in the comments below. We’re really looking forward to hearing how this streamlines your workflow!
