When will Asana have a zap "create project from template"!?!?!

[abass]

Hi Evan,

I wrote up a post here showing how to use the “Create Project from Template” from Zapier using the native API and Zapier webhook functionality:

Improved Zapier Functionality (For Project Creation)

Hey Joshua, I totally agree, though they just finally created project via template creation through the native Asana API. So you can use Zapier if you’d like, but you have to use the “Webhook” functionality and learn how to use the Asana API directly. We have it set up to do exactly what we need it to do now. Definitely was a pain to get set up, hope they eventually add it to the native Zapier integration, but that may be why you aren’t seeing more action here. Because it’s now possible, though…

While I too would love to see it native, Zapier manages the Asana integration (not Asana) and it’s already far behind and running into other issues, so I don’t foresee them adding new functionality to it anytime soon.

Please go and upvote this thread so we can get to Asana’s attention and hopefully change this:

Please Take Over Zapier Integration Development

Zapier told me that if we can convince Asana to take over the integration that would be super helpful and would likely result in more frequent updates and fixes. There are a few bugs in it right now. For example, you can’t create a task with multiple projects tied in the current Zapier configuration. It’s just a bug and tough for Zapier to put all of the resources behind fixing them all. Asana’s team is far larger and would likely do a better job keeping their integration working and bug-free. …

Cheers!
