Asana
Business appsBearer tokenConnection test available
Create tasks in Asana (personal access token).
OCNORA ships 31 typed Asana operations and 1 trigger. Each node has a schema-driven form, input and output tables beside its settings, and is pre-flighted by Workflow Health before your first real run. Endpoints not covered by a typed node are called at https://app.asana.com/api/1.0 through the HTTP node with the same credential.
Before you connect Asana
- Authentication
- Bearer token
- Credential
- the Asana personal access token, or an OAuth access tokenthe Asana personal access token, or {"token": "…"}the Asana personal access token
- Connection test
- Available: the stored credential can be checked against the provider when you add it. This is not a record that a test was run or passed.
- Prerequisites
- An OAuth token needs the webhooks:write scope (webhooks:read to reconcile). Publishing also needs MANTLE_APP_PUBLIC_BASE_URL set to a public https URL — Asana refuses a target it cannot reach, and answers 403 for hostnames like localhost.
Prerequisites are taken from the connection notes in this provider’s node contracts; each node’s reference page says which apply to it.

Asana questions
- How does OCNORA authenticate with Asana?
- With a stored Bearer token credential, shaped the Asana personal access token, or an OAuth access token or the Asana personal access token, or {"token": "…"} or the Asana personal access token. A connection test can check it when you add it.
- What can I automate with Asana?
- 31 typed operations and 1 trigger, each with a reference page listing its config fields and the shapes it emits.
- What if the Asana operation I need is not listed?
- Call https://app.asana.com/api/1.0 from the HTTP node with the same credential, or describe the step to the AI builder, which asks our team for a typed node when one is missing.
- Are there templates that use Asana?
- Not yet. Start from a blank workflow, or describe the workflow to Build with AI.
- How are Asana calls controlled?
- Every call and every run step is audited, runs count against the execution budget, and Workflow Health pre-flights the workflow when you save it.
