    How to Configure Triggers in Asana

    This article describes how to configure triggers in Asana to control which tasks and projects are synchronized.

    Triggers in Asana: Triggers use field-based queries to filter tasks and projects. You can use project names, user emails, tags, and status types without needing Asana GIDs.

    Task triggers

    Filter tasks by project, assignee, tags, or completion status:

    projects="Development"
    tags="urgent"
    completed=false
    assignee="john.doe@example.com" AND completed=false
    projects="Support" AND tags="external"

    Project triggers

    Filter projects by status, owner, or state:

    status="at_risk"
    
    Status Types: Supported project status types include at_risk, on_track, off_track, on_hold, complete, achieved, partial, missed, and dropped.

    Syntax rules

    • String values use quotes: status="at_risk"
    • Boolean values no quotes: archived=false
    • Use AND for combinations: status="at_risk" AND owner="me"
