Asana + Slack

Create Asana tasks from new saved Slack messages

When this happens
Step 1: New Saved Message
Then do this
Step 2: Create Task

Slack is where you find yourself coming up with new tasks. Asana is where you manage your tasks. To create new tasks in Asana right from Slack, use this integration and next time you save a message an Asana will be created.

Note: This Zapier integration doesn't import already saved Slack message, only new saved messages once its been activated.

How It Works

You save a message in Slack
Zapier creates an Asana task using the Slack message text and link to message
