Summary Asana tasks can be organized into deep subtask hierarchies, but a parent task’s dates have always been independent of its subtasks’ dates. A parent could be due March 15 while a subtask ran to March 20, and nothing in the API surfaced that gap. This release adds API support for detecting when a task’s dates no longer cover its descendants’ dates, and for triggering the same date-alignment…
Summary We’re extending custom types beyond custom task types to also support custom projects and portfolios. With this release, you can: Look up custom types across an entire workspace, not just within a single project Identify Asana-created custom types via the new asana_created_type_identifier field (similar to the existing asana_created_field property on custom fields) Filter GET /tasks, GET /…
Summary In Asana, a subtask inherits its ancestor tasks’ project associations even when it has not been added to those projects directly. The web and desktop apps already show these inherited projects, but the API has only ever exposed direct project memberships — so integrations could not reconstruct what users see in the product. We’re closing that gap with two additive, opt-in reads, plus one c…
AI Studio Usage API Summary We’re adding programmatic access to AI Studio usage data through two new read-only endpoints under a new ai_studio resource group: Credit utilization (/workspaces/{workspace_gid}/ai_studio/runs): one row per AI Studio run (rule execution), including what ran, who owns it, the model used, and the credits consumed. Seats (/workspaces/{workspace_gid}/ai_studio/seats): a cu…

Summary The Search projects in a workspace endpoint (GET /workspaces/{workspace_gid}/projects/search) now supports sort_by=relevance, bringing it to parity with both the Asana web app’s advanced search and the existing Search tasks in a workspace endpoint. Previously, project search results could only be sorted by due_date, created_at, completed_at, or modified_at. You can now pass sort_by=relevan…
Summary You can now discover agents in a workspace, look up individual agent records, and assign tasks directly to an AI Teammate through both the REST API and the Asana MCP server. These changes are in Early Access and require an opt-in header (Asana-Enable: ai_teammate_actors). This is the first in a phased rollout. Future phases will expand agent support to attribution fields (created_by, compl…
[ New ] Out of Office API and deprecation of vacation_dates Summary We are introducing the new OooEntry resource to the Asana API, enabling support for multiple out-of-office periods per user. This updates Asana’s OOO model from a single, read-only date range to a flexible, multi-entry system with full CRUD support. As part of this change, the vacation_dates object (containing start_on and end_on)…

A new parameter, custom_types.{CUSTOM_TYPE_GID}.custom_type_status_option.gid, al…
[New] Categories for Time Tracking Entries Summary The Asana API now supports Time Tracking Categories — a way to label time tracking entries with categories like “Development,” “Meetings,” or “Design Review.” Categories give managers enhanced visibility into how time is being spent across their teams, enabling more granular reporting and filtering. This update introduces a new TimeTrackingCategor…
[Change] Custom Types Support in Memberships Endpoints Summary The /memberships endpoints now support Custom Task Types. You can use Custom Task Type GIDs as the parent parameter when creating, retrieving, updating, and deleting memberships. Responses for memberships belonging to a Custom Task Type include a new resource_subtype value: custom_type_membership. Custom Task Types are reusable task co…
[New] Project Portfolio Settings’s New Endpoints and Webhooks Summary We are introducing the project_portfolio_setting resource to the Asana API. This new resource represents the relationship between a portfolio and a project it contains, specifically exposing the ability to manage permission inheritance. This is designed as a standalone resource to model the many-to-many relationship between proj…
[New] Advanced Search for Projects Finding specific projects via the API previously required fetching large lists and filtering client-side. The new Advanced Project Search endpoint allows you to query projects directly by name, membership, custom fields, and date ranges, using the same filtering capabilities available in Asana’s web app search. Who is affected? This change applies to developers b…

This enhancement enables seamless synchronization of people data from external HR systems directly into Asana. With these new endpoints, you can now sync employee attributes like location, start date, dep…
Summary We’re adding two new optional query parameters ( entered_on_start_date and entered_on_end_date) to the GET /time_tracking_entries endpoint. These parameters let you filter time tracking entries by the entered_on date field, so you can retrieve entries within a specific date range without client-side filtering. This is a non-breaking change. The new parameters are optional, and existing req…
Summary The Asana MCP server is now generally available with the release of V2. This update introduces a new client registration model, an optimized tool set, support for Streamable HTTP, and workspace scoped authorizations. The previous beta release of the MCP server (now referred to as V1) is deprecated as of today and will be shut down in 3 months. The V1 redirect URI allowlist is frozen, so al…
Summary Three new fields are now available on all API requests that return TimeTrackingEntry entities: approval_status, billable_status, and description.
