Hi @Reza!

I’ve added you to the list as well :)
 

Yes add me too.  This makes so much sense.  Create new project in Asana with a keyword to correlate to which template to use.  Keep us Posted.

Hi @MratioT!

I wish I could tell you that I have updates to report, but I’m afraid I don’t :( It’s still an existing feature request that we’re adding votes for (I added yours, by the way). As a workaround, you could look into using the Asana API to duplicate an existing project: https://developers.asana.com/docs/duplicate-a-project.

We have a couple of Community articles that touch upon using the Asana API:

Hope that helps!

Please add me as well! Thank you!

Hi everyone,

 

While it isn't part of the native Zapier integration, we have set up a number of zaps for clients which look at duplicating an Asana Project utilising the Webhook by Zapier app to make a POST request to Asana for duplicating.

 

We have had clients first create a base project design that they would like duplicated, then use the native Zapier Asana action of 'Find Project' to bring back the project ID

 

Using the webhook by zapier step, you can then send a POST request to duplicate the project and assign it to an Asana team.

The post URL would have the following form:

https://app.asana.com/api/1.0/projects/[project ID]/duplicate

 

An example body payload would look like below and simply needs the generated API token as an authorisation header:

 

{ "data": { "include": [ "task_assignee" ], "name": "Test Team Name Project", "team": "1111111111" } }

 

While having this part of the native Zapier interface would be an easier option, using their API as as a current workaround is a workable option.

 

If you need any additional information feel free to reach out any time.

Regards, Michael
