I don’t know if it would be best to have a browser extension or simply a smart bookmarklet that people could download from [asana.com](http://asana.com) that would let them do this.

It is a simple thing to provide that would add a lot of functionality.

Hi @Ali_Nabavi, welcome to the Asana Community Forum 👋

To ensure I understand your request correctly, could you please provide a little more context on _“adding a webpage to Asana as a task”_?

Looking forward to hearing back from you 🙂

There is a chrome browser extension that exists already

> **[Asana Chrome Extension: quick-add tasks • Asana](https://asana.com/apps/chrome)**
>
> Add tasks to Asana from any webpage in Chrome with the Asana Chrome Extension. Add the current URL as a task to read articles later or share.

Sure, Rebecca. 🙂 Thank you for your response.

Other similar services offer browser extensions that allow a user to add the current webpage to the service as a task. For example, the TickTick extension lets me click on a context menu item (or whatever, the developer’s choice) and click to add the current URL as a task in TickTick. Additionally, it opens up a window that lets me edit the task, so I can edit the name of the task, if necessary, change the priority, add it to a list/project, etc. I would be happy with just the first part, being able to save a webpage to Asana as a task.

Does that answer your question?

Hi @Cliodhna_Kirk : here’s the privacy policy: [https://teamkickstart.com/easytasker-privacy-policy/](https://teamkickstart.com/easytasker-privacy-policy/)

It’s a very simple app in terms of access and database (but with lots of functionality throughout your workday – create and access tasks from anywhere). 98-99% of functionality just happens in your browser, so we don’t have any need to retain anything else. The only data we gather are your first/last name and your email (based on the name & email in your asana account) for the purposes of signing in and greeting you.

Heyy Bryan, just installing the add-on however I cam across:

If you authorize **[✅EasyTasker.io](http://xn--EasyTasker-gt2g.io) for Asana** ([easytasker.io](https://EasyTasker.io)) , you will give it permission to:

- Access your name and email address.
- Access your tasks, projects, and workspaces.
- Create and modify tasks, projects, and comments on your behalf.

Can you elaborate on the last point of commenting/modifying on your behalf?

Thanks

@Cliodhna_Kirk - great question. EasyTasker does not currently add any comments or modify anything in existing tasks.

Later this year, you will be able to comment on and modify existing tasks, but EasyTasker never creates, comments, or modifies anything automatically – it’s all based on user actions.

When it says “on your behalf”, it simply means that you take actions, like creating tasks, using EasyTasker, and EasyTasker will put those tasks in Asana for you.

Does that help? Let me know of any other questions.
