How to Sync Multiple Projects in Asana
This article describes how to synchronize tasks assigned to multiple projects in Asana.
Multiple Projects: Asana tasks can belong to multiple projects simultaneously. This enables cross-functional workflows where tasks are tracked across different project contexts.
Incoming sync (Remote system → Asana)
To assign tasks to multiple projects when syncing to Asana, use comma-separated project names:
// Single project assignment
entity.customFields.project.value = "Cross-functional project plan"
// Multiple project assignment
entity.customFields.project.value = "Cross-functional project plan,Mars Rover 123"What this does: The connector automatically parses comma-separated project names, resolves them to Asana GIDs, and assigns the task to all valid projects.
Outgoing sync (Asana → Remote system)
To send multiple project information from Asana to the remote system:
replica.project = entity.projectThis provides comprehensive project data including project names, GIDs, and section context in the replica.
