ActiveCampaign and Asana, ready to switch on

A contact carrying the tag you nominate opens a task in the Asana project you choose, with the email, the answers and a due date, and closing the task tags them back in ActiveCampaign. You paste two keys in your account and we switch it on for you.

No setup fee, cancel any month, and a person on live chat if a key doesn't work.

Onboarding from your template	ActiveCampaign to Asana	When the tag says they have paid	The project is copied from the template you nominate, with dates counted from the day it starts
Custom fields	ActiveCampaign to Asana	With every task	Source and plan go into Asana custom fields where the project has them, and into the description where it doesn't
Completion tags them back	Asana to ActiveCampaign	When the task is completed	So a nurture sequence can wait for delivery to finish instead of guessing at a delay

Paste the ActiveCampaign API key and the Asana access token
- ActiveCampaign API key: in ActiveCampaign open Settings in the left menu, then Developer. Full ActiveCampaign guide
- Asana access token: open app.asana.com/0/developer-console, or go to Settings, then Apps, then Manage developer apps. Full Asana guide
Each screen carries the full guide with the exact menu names, about five minutes for both.
We check both keys

Each key is checked against ActiveCampaign's and Asana's own API the moment you paste it. If one doesn't pass, the screen says what to fix, and a person joins the chat if that isn't enough.
Tag one test contact, then we switch it on

A minute or two. Put the tag you chose on a contact in ActiveCampaign and watch the task appear in the project. From then on we watch it for you. A person checks the setup and switches it on, within a working day.

When ActiveCampaign or Asana changes its API, we fix it within a working day. You don't get a ticket to solve.

Before you decide

Which contacts turn into work?

Only the ones carrying a tag you name. That keeps the board about people someone has to act on, not about everyone who ever gave an email address.

Who ends up as the assignee?

The owner from ActiveCampaign when the same person exists in Asana, otherwise the default you pick while connecting. Nothing lands unassigned.

Does every tagged contact become a task?

Only contacts carrying the tag you name, and only once. If your automation adds that tag again later, the existing task is updated rather than a second one appearing in the project.

Can two tags point at two different projects?

Yes. Say which tag means which project while connecting, and each one lands where the work belongs. One tag into one project is where most teams start.

Anything to know about ActiveCampaign?

The API key belongs to the user who made it, so the integration acts with that user's permissions and shows up in the account as that user.

Anything to know about Asana?

A personal access token acts as your user, so tasks are created in your name and only in projects that user can see.

What if mine is a bit different?

Tell us what should go where in plain words. Small changes to the rules above are usually free; bigger ones we price within a working day and build into the same account.
