How to connect Microsoft Teams and Asana
Create a New Scenario to Connect Microsoft Teams and Asana
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Microsoft Teams, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Microsoft Teams or Asana will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Microsoft Teams or Asana, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Microsoft Teams Node
Select the Microsoft Teams node from the app selection panel on the right.

- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Microsoft Teams, Asana, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Microsoft Teams and Asana integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Microsoft Teams and Asana (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Microsoft Teams and Asana
Microsoft Teams + Asana + Jira: When a new channel message is posted in Microsoft Teams, if it contains certain keywords indicating a critical issue, a task is created in Asana and an issue is created in Jira, linking them to the original message.
Asana + Microsoft Teams + Google Calendar: When an Asana task is marked complete, a follow-up meeting is automatically scheduled via Google Calendar, and a message is sent to a Microsoft Teams channel to notify the team about the meeting.
