Giphy in Asana - Option 2-2 (1)
Giphy in Asana - Option 2-2 (1)1920×1080 551 KB

You know what your workday is missing? GIFs.

Not “corporate-approved stock photo smiles,” but actual emotion. The kind of GIF that says:

“God this task was hard, I am so happy I am done.”

Because work can be fun.

And the right GIF at the right time? That’s culture.

That’s how teams bond, how morale rises, how we avoid crying silently into our coffee.

So the i.DO team built the thing you didn’t even know you needed: GIPHY directly inside Asana.

Here’s how it works:

  1. In your favorite project, open Customize > Apps > Search for “Giphy”. Go through the installation process.

  2. Then open a task like the responsible adult you are.

  3. Click the integration button below the custom fields.

  4. Type a mood, a vibe, or whatever chaos is in your head (“celebration”, “Monday”, “I tried”).

  5. Boom: the perfect GIF is posted as a comment.

No tab-switching. No copy-paste gymnastics. Just :sparkles: emotional clarity :sparkles:.

I’ve been using it nonstop.

Let’s pray your company doesn’t ban it.

(If they do, tell them it’s “team alignment through multimedia emotional expression.” They love that stuff.)

This is a great feature and was quickly adopted by my team. The only downside is on Board view, they appear as an image on each task. It’s quite distracting and confusing when there’s no context why a random image is on the task.

Is there anyway to stop that?
