Connect Asana with WordPress

Q: What can Nodest see and change in my Asana account?

Nodest acts as the person who authorized the connection, so it reaches exactly the workspaces, projects, and tasks that person can already reach, but nothing beyond. Tasks and comments created by an automation are attributed to that user in Asana.

Q: Do I need a paid Asana plan?

Asana's free Personal plan is enough to create, update, comment on, and complete tasks. Custom fields are the exception: Asana includes them from the Starter plan upwards, so on a free plan those inputs have nothing to offer.

Q: Do I have to reconnect Asana periodically?

No. Nodest renews the authorization in the background, so the connection keeps working until you disconnect it or someone revokes access in Asana. If that happens, reconnect from the Integrations page and existing automations pick up where they left off.

Q: How do I connect WordPress to Nodest?

Click Connect on WordPress in your Integrations list and enter your site URL. Nodest sends you to your own site, where WordPress asks you to approve the connection.

Q: Which user does Nodest act as?

The WordPress account that approved the connection. Everything an automation does is carried out with that account's capabilities, so a connection approved by an editor cannot create users, and content it publishes is attributed to that account.

Build automations that connect Asana with WordPress. When something happens in Asana, Nodest passes the data along and runs the actions you set up in WordPress or the other way around — no coding required.
