Hello, I really want to use the Rules feature in a project of mine at Asana, but I’m not able to “activate” it.
At first I thought that my user wasn’t allowed to use the Rules feature, but for my surprise, as I created a new project based on Work Requests template, the Rules feature was there for me!
The problem is: I already have a project full of my tasks and don’t want to lose any of that. And wouldn’t like to move all that tasks, as I really appreciate my organization.
Is there any way to “activate” the Rules feature on my project?
How do I check my Asana version?
Anyway, do you understand that this question doesn’t makes sense, as I can use the Rules feature on a recently created project, ?
Are you paying for Asana, or are you using the free version? Rules aren’t available with the free version of Asana, so just wanted to check if this isn’t the reason why you don’t see the option.
Also, please note that if you are a Guest in an Organization, you will only be able to see Rules if they are created within that specific project!
Lastly, you might have Limited Member access in some projects and Guest access in others, which is managed by other Members within the Org. If this is the case in where you are a Guest, you won’t be able to create Rules!
Just checked. I’m a guest in the organization, and on both projects I mentioned. What still doesn’t makes sense to me is that why I’m able to use the Rules feature in one project and not in another, considering they are both in the same organization, both team, both created by me, a guest.
Is there a way to add a Rule at the Project > Portfolio level? I’d love to be able to say, for example, if X custom field for a Project has value Y, add it to Portfolio W.
The use case is being able to use Portfolios more dynamically - rather than all Portfolios being manually created (create project, add it to a Portfolio), Portfolios are updated dynamically to reflect all relevant projects once they are created.
Hi there. Question related to this topic: I am the owner of a project, and can no longer add rules to it for some reason; the option is greyed out for me. I just confirmed I am in fact still the project owner, and can add rules on other projects. Any ideas?
No, there’s no capability for that. I think the closest you can come is to create rules in a Project Template; then any project created from that template will have those rules in it.
