Hi @skai_yeung, I can reproduce the behavior.
Asana API returns the correct tasks when I pass the actual YYYY-MM-DD date to the due_on parameter. However, it seems due_on=null is not working correctly and it’s swapped with the search not specifying “due_on”.
I think we’ll need to wait for the Asana team to help us.

Hi @ShunS. Thanks for the reproduction.

@skai_yeung Thank you for the reproduction and screenshots. We have determined that this was a bug related to the filtering logic for null due dates for this endpoint. A fixed has been deployed and you should now be able to filter for tasks that do not have a due date.
