Asana
Overview
Asana is a work management platform for organizing tasks, projects, and workflows. Integrate with Asana to create and manage tasks, projects, and workspaces from Fours and to automate task workflows.
Org-Level vs User-Level
Org-Level: Uses an Asana Service Account token for organization-wide access. Best for shared, company-wide automation.
User-Level: Uses OAuth to connect an individual’s Asana account for personal task and project management.

Fours AI Tools
When Asana is connected, the Fours AI agent can manage work in Asana through Fours’ built-in tools (43 actions). Capabilities are grouped below.
Org-level and user-level: Both are supported; user-level takes precedence when both are connected.
| Capability | What the agent can do |
|---|---|
| Tasks | Create, read, update, and delete tasks and subtasks, and search a workspace (e.g. create-task, update-task, search-tasks-in-workspace) |
| Projects | Manage projects and task–project membership (e.g. create-project, add-project-to-task) |
| Sections | Organize tasks into project sections (e.g. create-section, list-tasks-for-section) |
| Tags | Manage tags and attach or detach them on tasks (e.g. create-tag, add-tag-to-task) |
| Stories & comments | Add and read comment threads on tasks (e.g. create-story-on-task, list-stories-for-task) |
| Workspaces, teams & users | Read org structure and the connected account (e.g. get-account, list-workspaces, list-users-for-workspace) |
