Hi @anon63165512, While this feature isn’t available at this time, hopefully it’s something our Product team can implement in the future
We do have an existing thread for this feature request in the #productfeedback category so I’ve gone ahead and merged your post with the existing one to consolidate feedback.
I’ll keep you posted and let you know if I have any updates
Hi all - adding my voice to this feature request. I found myself in the exact same position:
just upgraded
excited for the reporting capabilities
go to build a custom dashboard widget with my tags
no tags available in reporting
The csv workaround mentioned by a few people doesn’t quite fit my use case. I’m trying to keep all my reporting inside of Asana if possible.
The other workaround I’m about to try here is creating a custom field for each tag and slicing my task data by custom field. Looks like each task can have up to 60 custom fields and I only use about 10-ish tags. This should be doable but it’s definitely a significant workaround and a departure from the idea of “what custom fields are supposed to do.”
adding my voice to this too. Though you can have saved searches of tags it’s really not viable for tracking purposes. Having tags as an option for tracking in dashboard allows you to go straight to the data set needed and to have overall data sliced by cross reference as needed too. (like closed versus open tasks that have an important tag on them or comparing two specific tags out of 10 or more possible). Though a category or field can also be used, sometimes this just sprawls too much. especially on longer term projects that you are tracking something temporarily on tasks. Tag data tracking allows teams to use and deprecate some important tracking features, goals, outliers, use-case scenarios, and other items without changing overall project board features and function. It’s a pretty big thing that’s needed and work arounds are suuuuper clunky for.
Would love to see this implemented - I use tags to categorise request intake, predominantly across requestor, region, subject, deliverable and assigned team areas, and being able to report on these would massively reduce the manual effort to get meaningful data from Asana.
+1 to what everyone says.
We use tag to categorize or flag updates for our dashboards to go through. It would be really great for us to have the ability to build a dashboard based on these tags to break it down since tags span across multiple boards it’s easier to maintain then a custom field.
