Integrate the Asana API.Caddi writes and runs the integration for you.
Asana has a REST API. Self-serve for any Asana user, including free-tier domains (which get lower rate limits).
- 99%of agent runs complete successfully
- ~45 minon average to build your first agent
- 1M+back-office tasks completed
The connection is a project before it does anything.
Before the first record moves: an app registration, credentials, token refresh, and somewhere to host and monitor the code. 150 requests/min on free domains and 1,500/min on paid domains, with max 50 concurrent GETs and 15 concurrent writes.
Register an app, store Asana credentials, refresh tokens and code around the rate limits.
Connect your Asana account once. Caddi holds the connection.
The job doesn't stop at Asana.
An intake, a filing or a client update also runs through email, documents and the other systems your team works in. The Asana API only reaches Asana.
Each extra system is another API, another set of credentials, another integration to own.
One automation runs across every tool the job touches, each through its API.
Someone has to own the code.
API versions change, fields get added and your process moves.
A developer patches and redeploys the integration each time.
The person who does the work updates it by showing or describing the change. Every automation is reviewed before it runs in production, and every run is logged.

When to build the Asana integration in-house
When you have engineers and the integration is your product, or you need one narrow sync between two systems and someone to own it. When the goal is getting Asana work off someone's desk, the build is the slow part, and Caddi does it for you.
What teams usually want the Asana API for
Email-to-task
Caddi reads inbound work-request emails, creates the matching Asana task with the right project and owner, and replies with a confirmation.
CRM-driven onboarding project
When a new account closes in the CRM, Caddi spins up the onboarding Asana project from a template and assigns the standard tasks.
Task completion write-back
When an Asana task closes, Caddi updates the upstream system of record (CRM, matter system) and notifies the requester.
Everything Caddi does with Asana.
Asana API questions
Does Asana have an API?
Yes. Asana has a REST API, authenticated with OAuth 2.0 or personal access token. The official documentation is at https://developers.asana.com/docs.
How do I get access to the Asana API?
Self-serve for any Asana user, including free-tier domains (which get lower rate limits).
Does the Asana API have rate limits?
150 requests/min on free domains and 1,500/min on paid domains, with max 50 concurrent GETs and 15 concurrent writes.
Can I connect Asana to my other tools without writing code against its API?
Yes. With Caddi you show the Asana task once, the way you'd train a new hire, and Caddi builds it as verified code that runs across Asana and the other tools the job touches. Steps that need a person's judgment are handed to Copilot or Claude, and Caddi monitors those too.
Do I need a developer to automate Asana with Caddi?
No. There is no integration code for you to write or maintain. Every automation Caddi builds for Asana is reviewed before it runs in production, and every run is logged.
