How do you set up recurring projects from a template in Asana?

Hi all!

I’m trying to figure out if it’s possible to automatically create recurring projects from a template — for example, setting up a weekly or monthly recurring project based on a predefined template.

I’ve done some digging and it looks like this isn’t natively supported in Asana, unless you’re using a paid third-party tool like Flowsana, Zapier, or Make.

That said, I’m curious:

Has anyone come up with a workaround using Asana’s features?
What tools or integrations do you recommend for this use case?

Would love to hear how others handle recurring project workflows — especially ones that don’t require too much manual setup every time. Thanks in advance!

Using a Rule, you can convert a task to a project when the task is due for example. So theoretically you could create a bunch of tasks, one per week for a year, and then have a rule create a project every week…

Do we know if there is any chance Asana will add this capability? It would be great to set up teams with daily recurring templates with an assortment of tasks so they can archive the entire template for storage at the end of the day.
