Asana
Asana is a project management tool that helps teams organize, track, and manage their work. It's used by project managers, teams, and individuals to plan and execute tasks, projects, and workflows.

Asana Overview
Use action names and parameters as needed.
Working with Asana
This skill uses the Membrane CLI to interact with Asana. Membrane handles authentication and credentials refresh automatically β so you can focus on the integration logic rather than auth plumbing.
Install the CLI
Install the Membrane CLI so you can run membrane from the terminal:
npm install -g @membranehq/cli
First-time setup
membrane login --tenant
A browser window opens for authentication.
Headless environments: Run the command, copy the printed URL for the user to open in a browser, then complete with membrane login complete .
Connecting to Asana
1. Create a new connection:
membrane search asana --elementType=connector --json
output.items[0].element?.id, then:
membrane connect --connectorId=CONNECTOR_ID --json
Getting list of existing connections
When you are not sure if connection already exists: 1. Check existing connections: membrane connection list --json
connectionIdSearching for actions
When you know what you want to do but not the exact action ID:
membrane action list --intent=QUERY --connectionId=CONNECTION_ID --json
Popular actions

Running actions
membrane action run --connectionId=CONNECTION_ID ACTION_ID --json
To pass JSON parameters:
membrane action run --connectionId=CONNECTION_ID ACTION_ID --json --input "{ \"key\": \"value\" }"
Proxy requests
When the available actions don't cover your use case, you can send requests directly to the Asana API through Membrane's proxy. Membrane automatically appends the base URL to the path you provide and injects the correct authentication headers β including transparent credential refresh if they expire.
membrane request CONNECTION_ID /path/to/endpoint
Common options:
| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| -X, --method | HTTP method (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE). Defaults to GET |
| -H, --header | Add a request header (repeatable), e.g. -H "Accept: application/json" |
| -d, --data | Request body (string) |
| --json | Shorthand to send a JSON body and set Content-Type: application/json |
| --rawData | Send the body as-is without any processing |
| --query | Query-string parameter (repeatable), e.g. --query "limit=10" |
| --pathParam | Path parameter (repeatable), e.g. --pathParam "id=123" |
Best practices
membrane action list --intent=QUERY (replace QUERY with your intent) to find existing actions before writing custom API calls. Pre-built actions handle pagination, field mapping, and edge cases that raw API calls miss.π Tips & Best Practices
