Zapier Asana integration: Task description not mirroring between two organizations

I work for 2 organisations. I want the Asana board of 1 organisation be reflected in the other organisation.

I have been able to create a zap where if a task is created in 1 organisation, it is indeed reflected in the other one. 

However, right now it only takes in the ‘name’ of the task. But I also want to add the description. I however don’t see this field as possible to select. I see ‘notes’ and ‘custom field description’ but notes doesn’t work, and custom field description always enters some weird default text. 

I tried adding a delay within the zap, because I thought it would create the task too fast in the new organisation so it didn’t have time to also reflect the description, but that also didn’t work. 

Hope someone can help me out.

Hi ​@Olivier R. 

Thanks for writing in Community. Dana here from Support - I'm happy to help today!

If you can find a field called ‘custom field description’ but it displays some default text, please review your sample data to see if the task in Asana has the correct description you wish to pull. 

If the ‘name’ of the task is being processed successfully, any other available fields should be able to be processed as well. 

Additionally, please feel free to submit a Support ticket here: https://zapier.com/app/get-help

 

 

If there is anything else I can help you with, feel free to let me know!

Thanks,
