Hi, @Stephen_Li .
As you say, it might be better to make it into a script.
However, I don’t have the skills to create scripts.
(Personally, my learning has stopped at the old BASIC language level.)
If you don’t mind, could you please make a script for the above AI processing?
When I asked AsanaAI to convert it into a script, they responded with the following:
The Help Center article doesn’t specifically explain how to translate Asana rules directly into JavaScript, but here’s a JavaScript representation of the “Use the due date of task E-D-D” action, as requested:
// Example script to mimic rule behavior using the Asana API
async function copyDueDateFromTask() {
// Initialize Asana API client (authentication is required for actual implementation)
const client = /* Initialize Asana API client */;
// Source task ID
const sourceTaskId = “1210748648125591”; // [E-D-D] task ID
// Target task ID (task this rule applies to)
const targetTaskId = /* Target task ID */;
try {
// Get source task information
const sourceTask = await client.tasks.findById(sourceTaskId);
// Get source task due date
const dueDateToApply = sourceTask.due_on;
// Update the due date of the target task
await client.tasks.update(targetTaskId, {
due_on: dueDateToApply
});
console.log("Task due date updated: " + dueDateToApply);
} catch (error) {
console.error(“An error occurred:”, error);
}
}
// Execute the function
copyDueDateFromTask();
This script uses the Asana API to get the due date from a specific task and apply it to another task. To actually use it, you need to configure Asana API authentication settings and proper error handling.
