Good day, I was hoping someone could guide me with this issue. I have a a website that needs to “seed” an Asana form, so when user click on the link from my website, the Asana form popup and is pre-populated with data. The issue is that I can’t add data to Asana/create task in project, until the user sees the form seeded with data initially, they then can click on submit to create a task in the project and perform workflow, etc. Any suggestions would be most appreciated by the members on this channel. Thank you ---

@Raed_Turkmani, I think your main options are: - Perhaps connector apps like [zapier.com](http://zapier.com), [make.com](http://make.com), etc. and a third-party form tool that supports what you’re looking for (Asana’s own form feature does not) - Asana [App Components](https://developers.asana.com/docs/app-components) (requires custom coding) Hope that helps, Larry ---

If I were to use the ASANA API to post data to project and create such a task, can then then pop-open the Asana form populated with that data? just trying to see what is possible with forms. Thank you ---

There’s no way to pre-populate an Asana form, at all - with or without the Asana API. If you need a form that’s pre-populated, you’d need to do it via a third-party form tool as @Larry_Berger_lpb says above. The ability to pre-populate an Asana form is a pretty popular request here in the forum: you can vote for it here: [Form Prefill values](https://forum.asana.com/t/form-prefill-values/66080) ---
