Missing team field in projects (only for newer projects, 2026)

Hi everyone,

I’m running into a strange issue with the Asana API and wanted to check if anyone else has seen something similar.

I’m fetching projects using:

GET /workspaces/{workspace_gid}/projects?opt_fields=name,team.name,…

Here’s the behavior:

  • Projects created before 2026 → team field is returned correctly

  • Projects created in 2026 → team is null or not included at all

Important context:

  • Projects are returned correctly (no missing data there)

  • Tasks inside those projects are also accessible without issues

  • Same API call, same token, same workspace

  • No changes were made to the code

  • Asana support mentioned there were no API changes

This is affecting my workflow because I group projects by team, and newer projects are coming through without that info.

Has anyone experienced:

  • team being null for newer projects?

  • Projects being created without a team implicitly?

  • Any permission-related behavior that could hide team in API responses?

Thanks!

Yes, this is expected behavior; by default projects are no longer “contained in” teams per this product change that you must have missed.
