1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Asana and Google Tasks Integration

To begin the integration of Asana with Google Tasks using Pabbly Connect, first, visit the Pabbly Connect website. If you do not have an account, click on the ‘Sign Up for Free’ button. For existing users, simply click on ‘Sign In’ to access your dashboard. This platform allows you to automate tasks between various applications seamlessly.

Once logged in, you will find a clear interface with options to create workflows. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button to initiate the integration process. Name your workflow something descriptive, like ‘Add New Asana Task to Google Tasks,’ and then click ‘Create’ to proceed. This step is crucial as it sets the stage for your automation.

2. Setting Up Asana as the Trigger Application

In this section, we will set Asana as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. A trigger is an event that starts the workflow, which in this case will be a new task created in Asana. Select ‘Asana’ from the list of applications and choose the event ‘New Task in a Project’. This selection ensures that every time a new task is added, the workflow will be activated.

• Select ‘New Task in a Project’ as the trigger event.
• Connect your Asana account by clicking ‘Add New Connection’.
• Choose the project from which tasks will be pulled.

After connecting your Asana account, you will need to select the specific project where the new tasks will be created. In this example, we will choose the project named ‘April Events’. Ensure that you click ‘Save’ and ‘Test Request’ to verify the connection. Once the connection is established, you can proceed to the next step.

3. Adding a Second Action Step to Retrieve Task Details

After setting up the trigger, we will add a second action step in Pabbly Connect to retrieve the details of the newly created task in Asana. This is essential to ensure that all relevant information, such as the task’s title, description, and due date, is captured accurately.

Choose ‘Get a Task’ from the action options. This step allows you to pull detailed information about the task using the task ID provided in the previous step. Connect to Asana again, but this time select ‘Select Existing Connection’ since you have already established a connection. Map the task ID from the trigger step to this action step.

• Select ‘Get a Task’ as the action event.
• Map the task ID from the previous step.
• Click ‘Save’ and ‘Send Test Request’ to capture the task details.

Once you have received the task details, ensure all necessary information is present. This includes the task title, description, and due date. Save this step to continue integrating with Google Tasks.

4. Finalizing the Action to Create a Task in Google Tasks

The final step in this integration process involves setting Google Tasks as the destination where the new task information will be sent. In Pabbly Connect, select Google Tasks as the action application and choose the ‘Create Task’ event. This action will allow you to create a new task in Google Tasks based on the information retrieved from Asana.

Connect your Google account by signing in and granting the necessary permissions. Once connected, select the task list where you want to create the new task. Map the task title and description from the previous step, ensuring that all information is correctly aligned. Click ‘Save’ and ‘Send Test Request’ to create the task.

After sending the test request, check your Google Tasks to confirm that the new task has been created successfully. If there are no errors, your integration is complete, and you can automate this process whenever a new task is created in Asana.

5. Conclusion: Automating Your Workflow with Pabbly Connect
