Search for status updates or messages with comments from specific people

I want to see all comments on Status Updates (AKA “Messages”) within a date range.

I’m able to do so for all Messages within a Portfolio, but unable to filter out Status Updates that have no comments. I also can search for “Commented on by” for “Me” and “Not me” but not for a given set of users (I can search for users who all commented, but not for any, i.e. “AND” vs “OR”.

Search operator syntax works for text fields (like titles), but not for users. Searching those text fields for users also doesn’t work.

Is there a way to do this? I’m imagining any of the following:

  • User groups that can be filtered via “Commented on by”
  • “OR” operators for users
  • A feed of recent comments on a portfolio

Hi Max!

You are completely correct in your findings, the features you are looking for are currently limited in Asana.

I have forwarded this to our Product Development team as a suggestion for future improvement, so thank you for this suggestion!

I would also suggest posting it in the Product Feedback section of the Forum, where other users can upvote your idea!

Sure, thanks. Can I cross-post or tag this one? Or do I need to post anew?
