Asana

SkillSecurity

Asana API integration with managed OAuth. Access tasks, projects, workspaces, users, and manage webhooks. Use this skill when users want to manage work items, track projects, or integrate with Asana workflows. For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway).

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

No other account needed.

Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.

Then ask your AI: use the Asana skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by craftos-dev/craftbot in skills/asana-api/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Access the Asana API with managed OAuth authentication. Manage tasks, projects, workspaces, users, and webhooks for work management.

Quick Start

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/asana/api/1.0/tasks?project=PROJECT_GID')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Base URL

https://gateway.maton.ai/asana/{native-api-path}

Replace {native-api-path} with the actual Asana API endpoint path. The gateway proxies requests to app.asana.com and automatically injects your OAuth token.

Authentication

All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY

Environment Variable: Set your API key as MATON_API_KEY:

export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"

Getting Your API Key

Sign in or create an account at maton.ai
Go to maton.ai/settings
Copy your API key

Connection Management

Manage your Asana OAuth connections at https://ctrl.maton.ai.

List Connections

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections?app=asana&status=ACTIVE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Create Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({'app': 'asana'}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections', data=data, method='POST')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Get Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Response:

{
  "connection": {
    "connection_id": "21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80",
    "status": "ACTIVE",
    "creation_time": "2025-12-08T07:20:53.488460Z",
    "last_updated_time": "2026-01-31T20:03:32.593153Z",
    "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
    "app": "asana",
    "metadata": {}
  }
}

Open the returned url in a browser to complete OAuth authorization.

Delete Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}', method='DELETE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Specifying Connection

If you have multiple Asana connections, specify which one to use with the Maton-Connection header:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/asana/api/1.0/tasks?project=PROJECT_GID')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

If omitted, the gateway uses the default (oldest) active connection.

Pagination

Asana uses cursor-based pagination. Use offset for pagination:

import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/asana/api/1.0/tasks?project=1234567890&limit=50&offset=OFFSET_TOKEN')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Response includes next_page when more results exist:

{
  "data": [...],
  "next_page": {
    "offset": "eyJ0eXBlIjoib2Zmc2V0IiwidmFsdWUiOjUwfQ",
    "path": "/tasks?project=1234567890&limit=50&offset=eyJ0eXBlIjoib2Zmc2V0IiwidmFsdWUiOjUwfQ",
    "uri": "https://app.asana.com/api/1.0/tasks?project=1234567890&limit=50&offset=eyJ0eXBlIjoib2Zmc2V0IiwidmFsdWUiOjUwfQ"
  }
}

Code Examples

JavaScript

const response = await fetch(
  'https://gateway.maton.ai/asana/api/1.0/tasks?project=1234567890',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`
    }
  }
);
const data = await response.json();

Python

import os
import requests

response = requests.get(
    "https://gateway.maton.ai/asana/api/1.0/tasks",
    headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['MATON_API_KEY']}"},
    params={"project": "1234567890"},
)
data = response.json()

Notes

Resource IDs (GIDs) are strings
Timestamps are in ISO 8601 format
Use opt_fields to specify which fields to return
Workspaces are the highest-level organizational unit
Organizations are specialized workspaces representing companies
IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use curl -g when URLs contain brackets (fields[], sort[], records[]) to disable glob parsing
IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to jq or other commands, environment variables like $MATON_API_KEY may not expand correctly in some shell environments. You may get "Invalid API key" errors when piping.

Error Handling

Status	Meaning
400	Bad request or missing Asana connection
401	Invalid or missing Maton API key
403	Forbidden - insufficient permissions
404	Resource not found
429	Rate limited
4xx/5xx	Passthrough error from Asana API

Troubleshooting: API Key Issues

Check that the MATON_API_KEY environment variable is set:

echo $MATON_API_KEY

Verify the API key is valid by listing connections:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Troubleshooting: Invalid App Name

Ensure your URL path starts with asana. For example:

Correct: https://gateway.maton.ai/asana/api/1.0/tasks
Incorrect: https://gateway.maton.ai/api/1.0/tasks
