This documentation for the Asana integration describes the technical capabilities of this integration, including authorization, scopes/permissions, and utilized endpoints. For more information on how to integrate Asana, visit our connection instructions.

Version

This integration utilizes the Asana API v1.0.

Base URL

The base URL used for all Asana API endpoints:

https://app.asana.com/api/1.0

Endpoints Utilized

DataGrail uses the following endpoints to authorize and test the connection:

GET	/users/me	Verify authentication
GET	https://app.asana.com/-/oauth_authorize	Request authorization
POST	https://app.asana.com/-/oauth_token	Get and refresh access token

---

Authentication & Authorization

The DataGrail Asana integration connects using OAuth 2.0 with the following credentials: Client ID and Client Secret.

Sensitive Credentials

Publicly exposing your API credentials can allow unauthorized access to Asana API endpoints by a third party. DataGrail stores your API credentials encrypted and protected.

Limits

Limits in Asana are calculated using the leaky bucket algorithm. All requests that are made after rate limits have been exceeded are throttled and an HTTP 429 Too Many Requests error is returned. Requests succeed again after enough requests have emptied out of the bucket.

• DataGrail supports requests throttling to stay within 70-80% of specified service rate limits.
• DataGrail processes API responses with HTTP 429 status to interrupt requests, waiting and retrying (using an exponential backoff strategy).
