Frequently Asked Questions about Asana + Salesforce integrations

New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Asana and Salesforce

Can I create a task in Asana whenever a new record is added in Salesforce?

Yes, you can set up a trigger to create a new task in Asana every time a new record is added in Salesforce. You’ll need to specify the particular fields or custom objects that should prompt this task creation.

Is it possible to update Salesforce records based on Asana task completions?

Indeed, our integration allows you to update existing records in Salesforce when an Asana task is marked as complete. This requires configuring an action within the integration settings where task completion triggers specific field updates in Salesforce.

How do I handle duplicate records when integrating Asana and Salesforce?

Handling duplicate records involves setting up filters within the integration that check for existing entries before creating new ones. This ensures that actions such as creating tasks or updating records don’t result in duplicates.

Can I use this integration to manage time-sensitive actions?

Certainly! You can configure time-based triggers so that certain actions, like updating a project status in Asana when a due date is approaching, initiate corresponding updates or alerts in Salesforce.

What kind of custom fields can be synchronized between Asana and Salesforce?

The integration supports many types of custom fields including text, number, and dropdown fields. It’s crucial to map these fields accurately during setup to ensure data consistency across both platforms.

Are there limitations on the number of tasks or records that can be synced daily?

The synchronization limits depend on your plan specifics. For most enterprise-level plans, there are high limits suitable for large operations, but it's always smart to check your current usage against those limits within our dashboard.

How do we secure data between Asana and Salesforce during integration?

We use OAuth for authentication and secure token exchange which ensures your data stays private and protected during all communication between Asana and Salesforce.
