How to connect Asana to Salesforce

Follow these steps to set up your integration. The entire process takes under 5 minutes.

What you'll need

  • An active Asana account
  • An active Salesforce account with API access enabled
  • A free Arahi AI account (sign up takes 30 seconds)
  • Admin or API access in Salesforce to authorize the connection
1

Create your Arahi AI account

Sign up at app.arahi.ai — it's free and takes 30 seconds. No credit card required. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.

2

Authenticate Asana

Click "Add Connection" and select Asana from the app directory. You'll be redirected to Asana's authorization page. Grant Arahi access to your workspaces, databases, pages, and tasks. You select which workspaces the integration can read and write to.

3

Authenticate Salesforce

Same process for Salesforce. Click "Add Connection," select Salesforce, and authorize access. Grant Arahi read/write access to your contacts, deals, and pipeline data. You choose which objects the integration can access.

4

Choose your trigger

Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new item created in asana or new contact created in salesforce. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.

5

Configure the action

Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: create contact in salesforce. Map the data fields between Asana and Salesforce so the right information lands in the right place.

6

Test and activate

Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between Asana and Salesforce. Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — Arahi handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about connecting Asana and Salesforce.

How do I connect Asana to Salesforce?

Sign up for a free Arahi AI account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both Asana and Salesforce via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing productivity events to crm actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.

What can I automate between Asana and Salesforce?

You can automate a wide range of workflows: sync new Asana events to Salesforce actions, trigger Salesforce updates when Asana data changes, create Salesforce records from Asana events, and build conditional workflows with filters and field mapping. Each workflow runs 24/7 with automatic retries.

Is the Asana and Salesforce integration free?

Arahi AI includes 100 free actions per month on the Starter plan — enough for most small teams. If your Asana-to-Salesforce workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $29/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.

Is my Asana data secure when connected to Salesforce?

Yes. Arahi uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your Asana or Salesforce passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your productivity data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your Arahi dashboard.

Can I sync data both ways between Asana and Salesforce?

Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either Asana or Salesforce. For example, create a workflow where Asana events update Salesforce, and a separate one where Salesforce changes sync back to Asana. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.

Do I need technical skills to connect Asana and Salesforce?

No coding is required. Arahi's visual workflow builder lets you configure triggers, actions, and field mapping with clicks. If you can use Asana and Salesforce, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
