Frequently Asked Questions

Does Asana integrate directly with Salesforce?

Yes, Asana has a native integration with Salesforce. It is available directly within the Asana app marketplace.

Is the connection between Asana and Salesforce secure?

Yes. This integration typically uses OAuth 2.0, meaning you grant permission via a secure login window. You do not need to share your raw password, and you can revoke access at any time from your Asana security settings.

Is the sync one-way or two-way?

This is typically a one-way sync: Asana → Salesforce. Changes in Salesforce do not sync back to Asana.

Will existing data in Asana sync to Salesforce?

Usually, no. Most native integrations are "forward-looking," meaning they only sync data created or updated *after* you activate the connection. To move historical data, you will likely need to perform a one-time CSV export/import manually.
