The best Asana integrations in 2026 Where work arrives, where files live, and how tasks get in.
Asana lists hundreds of integrations, and most teams need four or five. One where requests arrive, one where files live, maybe one automation, and a quick way to get a task in when you are away from your desk. These ten each do one of those jobs.
I build Driftto, and it is on this list. It sits ninth, at the top of the part about getting tasks in from your iPhone, because that is its only job: a note you type or speak becomes a task in an Asana project. Every other integration here is one I would point an Asana user to.
The list has four parts: where you already talk, files and design and code, automation, and getting tasks in from your iPhone. In October 2026 I went through the apps pages and pricing page on asana.com, Asana's email tips page, Zapier's and Make's pricing pages, and the US App Store listings. Asana's help center renders its articles with JavaScript, so I could not read them. Where an Asana page was silent on price or plan, the entry says so.
The short list
Eight of these connect Asana to tools you already use: Slack, Microsoft Teams and Gmail for conversations, Google Drive, Figma and GitHub for files and code, and Zapier and Make for automation. Two get a task in from your iPhone: Driftto, for a note typed or spoken, and Asana's own email address.

Where you already talk Chat and email, where requests arrive.
1 Slack
Asana · Slack and Asana
Turns a Slack message into an Asana task and posts Asana updates back to a channel.
- Price
- Asana's pricing page names Slack among the 100+ integrations on the free Personal plan. The Slack page doesn't say which plans include Rules.
- Works with
- Slack channels, which you can link to Asana projects.
- What it does in Asana
- Creates tasks, assigns them and adds them to a project. You can also comment, complete tasks and get notices when a task changes.
- Setup
- Authenticate through Slack, then type /asana to create, complete or comment on tasks. Link a channel to a project to get its updates.
- The catch
- Updates from private projects, portfolios and goals can land in a channel that includes people who are not members of them.
This is the one to set up first if requests reach you in Slack. Someone asks for something in a thread, you turn that message into a task, and it has an owner and a project before the conversation scrolls away. Going the other way, you can link a channel to a project and let it show what changed.
2 Microsoft Teams
Asana · Microsoft Teams and Asana
The Teams version of the Slack integration, with the addition of creating tasks during a meeting.
- Price
- Asana's page lists no price and no plan for it.
- Works with
- Teams chats, channels and meetings, with Asana tasks, projects, status updates and portfolios.
- What it does in Asana
- Creates tasks from conversations, searches and shares tasks in Teams, and posts to a channel when a rule fires in Asana.
- Setup
- A Teams admin must allow the app. Then add Asana from the Apps tab in Teams and log in to verify your workspace.
- The catch
- Attendees must log in to Asana themselves to use it in a meeting, and a Teams admin has to approve it first.
If your company runs on Teams, this puts Asana next to the conversation. The meeting part is the useful bit: the organizer adds Asana to the meeting, and attendees can create and assign tasks while people are still talking, rather than writing them up afterwards.
3 Asana for Gmail
Asana · Gmail on the web
Creates a task from the email you are reading, and can keep later replies in the thread attached to it.
- Price
- Asana's page lists no price and no plan for the add-on.
- Works with
- A Gmail account linked to your Asana account. It installs from the Google Workspace Marketplace.
- What it does in Asana
- Creates a task with the email's context. Search tasks, comment or complete them from Gmail, and send emails from Asana Rules.
- Setup
- Install the add-on, sign in with your linked Gmail account, then open an email and click the Asana icon in the side panel.
- The catch
- An organization-wide install can take up to 7 days to appear, and an admin must allow the Gmail app in Asana first.
Email is where a lot of work still starts. This add-on keeps you from forwarding it or copying it over. Tick Sync future replies to this task when you create the task, and new messages in that thread post to the task by themselves.
Files, design and code The work itself, next to the task.
4 Google Drive
Asana · Google Drive and Asana
Attach a Doc, Sheet or Slide to a task and get its comments in your Asana Inbox.
- Price
- Asana's pricing page names Google Drive among the 100+ integrations on the free Personal plan.
- Works with
- Files in your Google Drive. Comment notices cover Docs, Sheets and Slides.
- What it does in Asana
- Search for a Drive file and link it to a task. You see its owner, open comments and recent activity in Asana.
- Setup
- In a project, click Customize, then Add app, choose Google Drive and sign in to Google.
- The catch
- A file attached with the paperclip icon gives no comment notifications. Only files linked through the integration do.
The plain use is to stop hunting for the right Doc. The brief lives in Drive, the task lives in Asana, and the link between them is one click. The comment notices are the second reason: a comment on the Doc reaches you in Asana without opening Google.
5 Figma
Asana · Figma, FigJam and Asana
Shows live Figma files in an Asana brief, and turns FigJam stickies into Asana tasks.
- Price
- Asana's page lists no price and no plan. You need access to Figma or FigJam.
- Works with
- Figma and FigJam, through the Asana widget, and Asana project briefs.
- What it does in Asana
- Embeds a Figma file in a project brief as a preview. In FigJam, the widget turns selected stickies into Asana tasks.
- Setup
- Install Asana for Figma, paste an Asana project link into the widget, and sign in. To embed, paste a Figma link into a brief.
- The catch
- The widget lives inside Figma and FigJam, and you sign in to Asana there. The page lists no limits and no plan.
For design and marketing teams, a project brief that shows the actual design beats a brief that links to it. And a FigJam workshop that ends with a wall of stickies can end with tasks in a project instead of a photo of the wall.
6 GitHub
Asana · GitHub and Asana
Lets people who don't use GitHub see where a pull request stands, on the Asana task.
- Price
- Asana's page lists no price and no plan. You need a GitHub account you can authorize.
- Works with
- GitHub. It does not work with GitHub Enterprise Server.
- What it does in Asana
- Shows pull request review progress, build status, PR state and code change counts on the task.
- Setup
- In a project, click Customize, then Add app, choose GitHub and authorize your GitHub account. GitHub Actions add more.
- The catch
- It is installed per project. With GitHub Actions you can also attach files named in a PR description, but that setup is in the help center.
Engineering works in pull requests, and everyone else works in Asana. This closes the gap so a product manager can see that a review is pending without asking. It reports status to the task. It doesn't move your tasks for you.
Automation For the connection nobody built for you.
7 Zapier
Zapier · Web
The easier way into automation. A new row, form answer or email becomes an Asana task.
- Price
- The free plan has 100 tasks a month and two-step Zaps. Professional starts at $19.99 a month billed yearly, or $29.99 monthly.
- Works with
- Asana and more than 5,000 other apps, according to Asana's page.
- What it does in Asana
- Triggers include new, updated and completed tasks. Actions include creating and updating tasks, adding comments and attaching files.
- Setup
- Pick a template or build a Zap, log in to Asana, click Allow, test it and turn it on.
- The catch
- Asana says a third-party developer built it, so Asana doesn't endorse it and Zapier handles support. Multi-step Zaps need a paid plan.
Zapier reads like a sentence. When a client email arrives, add a task. When a task is added in Jira, add one in Asana. A starter template gets you most of the way, and the free plan is enough to find out whether you will use it.
8 Make
Make · Web, with an iPhone app
For the flow Asana doesn't offer. You draw it from modules, and it runs on a schedule.
- Price
- The free plan has 1,000 credits a month. Most actions use one credit, and scenarios pause when the credits run out.
- Works with
- Asana and the rest of Make's catalog.
- What it does in Asana
- Watches for new tasks, projects, subtasks and completions, and writes back with actions such as adding a story comment.
- Setup
- Build a scenario from modules or start from an Asana template, run a test, then schedule it.
- The catch
- Asana says a third-party developer built it and doesn't endorse it. You design and maintain every flow, and each run spends credits.
Make shows the whole flow as connected modules, which helps when one step breaks. Incoming emails become tasks, and a completed task can tell another tool. Expect an afternoon of setup for anything with branches.
Getting tasks in from your iPhone When you are away from your desk.
9 Driftto
Made by me · iPhone
The fewest steps from a thought on your iPhone to a new task in the Asana project you picked.
- Price
- Free to download. $2.99 a month, $19.99 a year with a free week for new subscribers, or $29.99 once.
- Works with
- iPhone only, with Siri, Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets and a Control Center button. No iPad, Mac, Watch or Android app.
- What it does in Asana
- Each capture becomes a new task in the project you picked. The whole note is the task name, and a photo is attached.
- Setup
- Connect Asana once and choose the project. One capture can also go to Asana and other destinations at the same time.
- The catch
- Nothing goes into the description, so a long note makes a long task name. It adds new tasks only and never reads or edits yours.
Driftto opens to a capture field with the keyboard already up. You type or speak, tap Asana, and the note is a task in your project. Saying "Hey Siri, new capture in Driftto" sends it to the one destination you picked for Siri, without touching the phone.
I built it because the slow part of saving a task was never the typing, it was everything before it. If a task needs a description, assignee or due date, add those in Asana afterwards. How Driftto and Asana fit together.
10 Email to Asana
Asana · Any mail app
Needs no app. Send or forward an email, and it becomes a task in your My Tasks.
- Price
- Asana's email tips page lists no separate price for it.
- Works with
- Any mail app, including Mail on your iPhone, sending from an address on your Asana profile.
- What it does in Asana
- The subject becomes the task name and the email body becomes the description. A forwarded email becomes a task assigned to you.
- Setup
- Send or forward the email to x@mail.asana.com. The task goes to the workspace linked to your email address.
- The catch
- Tasks land in My Tasks. Asana's page doesn't say how attachments are handled, or describe a way to pick a project.
This is the route Asana gives you itself. It works from any phone, because every phone has a mail app, and the subject line plus body maps cleanly onto a task name and description. The cost is the extra steps: open mail, write a subject, send, then move the task to a project.
How I picked
An integration made the list if it does a clear job for someone whose work runs in Asana, and if Asana or the maker documents what it does. The first three parts were judged on what reaches Asana, what stays behind and what Asana says about plans. The capture part has one criterion: how few steps stand between a thought on your iPhone and a new task in a project you picked. On that criterion Driftto takes the fewest, so it leads that part and nothing else.
Asana's own iPhone app is not on the list as an entry, since it is Asana itself rather than an integration. Its App Store listing is free, needs iOS 18 or later and mentions Siri, but I could not read the help article on creating tasks on iOS, so I say nothing about how its quick add works.
Nobody paid to be here and there are no affiliate links. If you are still choosing between tools, Airtable vs Asana compares the two. When a plan or a price changes, this page changes with it.
Questions
What are Asana integrations?
Connections between Asana and other tools. Some bring another tool's content into Asana, like a Google Drive file on a task or a GitHub pull request status. Others turn a message or email into a task, like the Slack and Gmail add-ons.
Are Asana integrations free?
Many are. Asana's pricing page says the free Personal plan includes 100+ integrations, naming Slack, Google Drive and Zoom. Tools built by others, like Zapier and Make, have their own pricing. Paid Asana plans are Starter at $10.99 per user a month billed yearly, and Advanced at $24.99.
Can I create an Asana task from an email?
Yes, two ways. The Asana for Gmail add-on creates a task from the open email. Or send or forward an email to x@mail.asana.com from an address on your profile: the subject becomes the task name, the body becomes the description, and it lands in My Tasks.
How do I add a task to Asana from my iPhone quickly?
You can email x@mail.asana.com from any mail app, or use Asana's own app. For a typed or spoken note that should become a task in a project you picked, a capture app like Driftto takes fewer steps than opening Asana.
