Hi @hamaiza101 and welcome to the forum,

FYI I moved your post to a new thread so as to specifically address this error scenario.

What this error means is that in your OAuth authorization request, you’ve sent a redirect_uri value which is not listed in the “Redirect URLs” section of your app’s OAuth page in your developer console.

To illustrate: let’s say this is the OAuth authorization request that you’re sending to https://app.asana.com/-/oauth_authorize:

<a
  href="https://app.asana.com/-/oauth_authorize
?client_id=753482910
&redirect_uri=https://myapp.com/auth_destination
&response_type=code
&state=thisIsARandomString
&code_challenge_method=S256
&code_challenge=671608a33392cee13585063953a86d396dffd15222d83ef958f43a2804ac7fb2
&scope=projects:read tasks:read tasks:write tasks:delete"
>
  Authenticate with Asana
</a>

Your redirect_uri of https://myapp.com/auth_destination must be specified here in your developer console:

Hi @Phil_Seeman we are using Asana through power automate the issue is when we go to create a connection we get this error. The issue is with new users and not old

Ah, OK, that’s important information. I updated the title of your post to include that info. I’m unfamiliar with the specifics of that integration, can’t help you there. Others here have used it and might know what’s up.

I have also started to have this issue with the built in Microsoft PowerAutomate connector in the past couple days. I am able to create an ‘App’ in Asana that can pass the auth with a custom Api connection. This is just an issue with the built in connector for me

I’m having the same problem when trying to build a workflow in Teams.

I have the same problem in a workflow.

I contacted Microsoft and they said this is an issue on Asana side. I am still awaiting a response from a ticket from the Asana team. Has anybody received a reply? Seems the forum is getting more of a response.

I am having the same issue. I have contacted Customer Support on Wednesday.

Hey @Josh_Kinross , Did it resolve the connection issue between Asana and Power automate ? If Yes , does one require Power Automate Premium for your solution? If you can provide your solution or direct me to the right solution it’ll be helpful. I tried creating an app and entered the Redirect URL as

  • https://global.consent.azure-apim.net/redirect
  • Toggled Full Permissions as well
    But my solution still isnt working. Am I missing something here?
    Thanks :slight_smile:

Hi @Bhavika_Madhwani, it does unfortunately not resolve the default connector. What it does allow you to do is build up a ‘Custom Connector’ in PowerAutomate and connect it to the ‘App’ you setup in Asana. I set one up for testing to see if I could connect to Asana at all, of which I had no issues. To use the ‘Custom Connector’ you do have to have PowerAutomate premium, however, you can build it and validate it for free.

To build the ‘Custom Connector’, I’d recommend using ChatGPT, as you can upload prompted files from ChatGPT directly, it can do troubleshooting and version control for you too, additionally you can get greater functionality than the default Asana connector. It’s surprisingly easy to do but will aslo require a paid ChatGPT account. This will give you the ability to fully utilise the Asana API.

I am having the same problem trying to connect Power Automate to Asana

This is happening for me as well. The Power Automate action was working perfectly for the past two weeks when it was just me. I then shared ownership of the flow with another team member who is also in the same Asana team and now we both get the above error. I do not know if the two events are linked, it could be coincidental.

Steps to replicate:

  1. Login to Microsoft 365
  2. Navigate to Power Automate
  3. Click Connections
  4. Click + New Connection
  5. Search Asana in the search bar
  6. Click Create
  7. Window opens where I assume the user should be able to login using their Asana credentials, but instead the error message appears as shown in the screenshot I uploaded
