Create an Asana project zap for a specific template


Hi!

I use many Asana zap but i would like to be able to choose a specific template from my Asana account. For example: A project is created in Asana - team Client when a proposal is won in Proposify. I want that project to be create form my client project template.

 

Any solution?

 

Thanks ;)

Hi, all!

Thank you all for letting us know you were looking for a way to duplicate or copy a project with the Asana integration. I'm happy to let you know that a new Create Project From Template action is now available.

Can you give that a try and see if that works for your needs?

If you run into any problems or have any questions, please don't hesitate to let us know. We are here to help!

Hi @Audrey_APHstrategie!

Is this the feature in Asana that you’re referring to: https://asana.com/guide/team/advanced/create-use-asana-templates. I want to make sure we’re talking about the same thing before I check for an existing feature request, or get a new one created. Thanks!


Hi @nicksimard !

Yes exactly but i already have created some templates so they are in my templates library and i want to use them. Let’s say i make a zap from Proposify, then i want my projet to be created with my existing template named “client” for example. 

 

Thanks!

Hi @Audrey_APHstrategie ,

Thanks for the additional info! This isn’t currently possible but the good news is that there is an open feature request for the ability to use these templates!

I've gone ahead and added you as an interested user for this feature which does the following:

  • Re-raises this issue with the Asana team
  • Adds weight to this feature request in the queue
  • Reminds us to update you once this is resolved

I don't have an ETA on when or if this feature will go into production, but if it does you will be notified via email. Please let us know if you have any additional questions- happy to help!


Is there any update on the above?
This would be desperately needed.

Hi @TomWFox! I’ve added you to this feature request, you’ll get an email if we have an update 🙂


Please add me as well - this would be extremely beneficial! Are there any timeframes/is this in the pipeline for Zapier to work on? Understand the API is available for it from Asana

Hi @Bree_D'Arcy!

I’ve gone ahead and added you to that feature request :)

I don’t have an exact timeline, but I can say that this integration is one that Zapier owns and maintains. As for the priority, it’s relatively high and there are a fair number of requests for it. So, hopefully sooner than later!

Hi @leanneoperations thanks for your message, I’ve added you as an interested user on that feature request. 


Hi there, please add me to this feature request too. This one would be huge. our own product is integrated with Zapier and having a project created from a template action would unlock thousands of our customers’ workflows. Our app (Practice Ignition) is a proposal tool, amongst other things. We have native integrations with other workflow solutions that deploy whole jobs and tasks, but Asana is well used within our niche, so this would be huge. Not only that, we’d use this action internally to run our own projects.
