# Connect Asana to your AI agent

> Yes — ClawLink is a hosted Asana MCP server. 153 tools your agent can call from chat, with one-click hosted OAuth and nothing to run locally.

Web version: https://claw-link.dev/hub/asana

ClawLink hosts a managed Asana MCP server that exposes 153 tools to your AI agent. You connect Asana in one click, and your agent can read, create, and update Asana data from chat without you building or running a local MCP server.

## Quick facts

- 153 tools callable from chat
- One-click hosted OAuth
- Works with OpenClaw, Hermes, Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and any MCP client
- No local server or config files

## Overview

The usual path is: build auth, handle token refresh, wire up the tools. With ClawLink you connect Asana once and start using the real actions from the agent.

## Setup

Asana uses OAuth. You connect it in the browser: click Connect, sign in, approve. ClawLink stores the token and refreshes it on its own. You never touch a key or wire up a redirect URL.

Authentication: hosted OAuth

## What you can do

- **Turn requests into work** — Create Asana docs, tasks, or events straight from the chat where the request landed.
- **Plan, then execute** — The agent checks what's already in Asana, sums it up, then creates the next item. No duplicates.
- **Knock out the small stuff** — Status checks, new entries, detail edits in Asana. The things that usually interrupt you.

## ClawLink vs. building it yourself

| | Manual | ClawLink |
|---|---|---|
| Connection | Build it yourself. You register a developer app with Asana, set up redirect URLs, handle the consent screen, store and refresh access tokens, and redo the wiring when scopes change. | Hosted hosted OAuth. Connect once in the browser. ClawLink owns the lifecycle. |
| Maintenance | Token refresh, permission debugging, env config, every edge case. All yours. | ClawLink handles the plumbing. You focus on the workflow. |
| Time to first call | Days to weeks. Auth, storage, tool wiring, testing. Then the agent can act. | About two minutes from sign-up to the agent calling Asana. |

## FAQ

### How do I connect Asana to my AI agent?

Install ClawLink, open the dashboard, click Connect next to Asana, and finish the hosted OAuth flow. Your agent can call Asana from the next message. Two minutes, total.

### Is there a Asana MCP server I can use?

Yes. ClawLink exposes Asana as 153 tools your agent calls through a hosted MCP-compatible runtime. You don't run a local server or edit a config file. The tools are there the moment you connect.

### Do I need Asana API credentials?

No separate API key. You sign in to Asana through the normal OAuth flow and ClawLink handles the token after that.

### How much does it cost?

Your first integration is free, plus a 7-day trial of the full catalog. Paid plans unlock the rest of the library.

### Can I set this up from the terminal instead of the dashboard?

Yes. Run npx -y @useclawlink/cli login, then npx -y @useclawlink/cli connect asana. The first opens a browser to sign in to ClawLink. The second opens a browser to authorize Asana. No API keys to create. Works with OpenClaw, Hermes, Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and any agent that runs shell commands.
