Connect Asana to Slack — No Code Required
Automate the handoff between Asana and Slack using plain English. Describe what you want to happen and Vendarwon Flow builds and runs the workflow automatically — forever, in real time, without developer help.
Why teams connect Asana to Slack
Task updates in Asana affect the whole team, but most people don't check their project tool every hour. Connecting to Slack delivers those updates where people already are — in their chat tool — the moment a task is completed, assigned, or moved to a new status.
CRM deals, new orders, and code events post to Slack the instant they happen — no one needs to relay them
High-priority alerts reach the right channel or person before anyone even knows to check
Daily digests and summaries post automatically — no manual compilation, no formatting time
What you can automate between Asana and Slack
When a new task arrives in Asana, automatically post a message to a channel in Slack — no manual work, no delay
Route specific Asana tasks from key sources and send a direct message in Slack the moment they arrive
Build a scheduled digest: collect Asana activity over time and post a formatted alert with details in Slack on a daily or weekly schedule
When a high-priority task is detected in Asana, notify a specific person instantly in Slack with all the relevant context included
Filter Asana tasks by keyword, sender, or category — then post a message to a channel in Slack only for the ones that matter
Create a two-way feedback loop: every qualifying task in Asana triggers a record in Slack that your team can track and act on
What you stop doing manually
Asana is valuable — but without automation, it creates repetitive manual work. Here is what teams eliminate the moment they connect Asana to Slack:
Manually creating Asana tasks every time a new request arrives via email, form submission, or Slack message
Updating task status in Asana after getting an update elsewhere, keeping two tools manually in sync
Notifying teammates in Slack or email about Asana completions and due date changes by hand

About Asana and Slack
Asana
Project Management
Asana is the project management platform used by 135,000+ paying organisations to track work across teams. The persistent friction: tasks are only created in Asana when someone remembers to create them — which means requests get lost and work falls through the cracks.
Available triggers
- new task created
- task completed
- task assigned to member
Available actions
- create a new task
- mark a task complete
- add a comment to a task
- assign a task to a team member
Slack
Team Messaging
Slack is the team communication hub used by over 750,000 companies worldwide. While it excels at conversation, the painful reality is that most alerts, updates, and status changes from other tools still get posted to Slack manually — by a person copy-pasting from another tab.
Available triggers
- new message posted in a channel
- keyword or mention detected
Available actions
- post a message to a channel
- send a direct message
- post a formatted alert with details
- notify a specific person instantly
Frequently asked questions
Does Asana have a native Slack integration?
Asana and Slack do not have a built-in direct integration that covers most real automation scenarios. Vendarwon Flow acts as the bridge — you describe what you want in plain English and it handles the API connections between both tools securely. No Zapier account, no developer, no webhook configuration needed.
What Asana events can trigger the automation?
With Vendarwon Flow you can trigger automation from any of these Asana events: New task created; task completed; task assigned to member. You can also combine triggers — for example, only fire the automation when a task matches a specific keyword or comes from a particular source.
What can the automation do inside Slack?
Once triggered, the workflow can perform any of these actions in Slack: Post a message to a channel; send a direct message; post a formatted alert with details; notify a specific person instantly. You can chain multiple actions together — for example, post a message to a channel and then send a direct message.
How quickly does the automation run after something happens in Asana?
In real time — typically within a few seconds of the triggering event. Vendarwon Flow runs continuously in the cloud, so there is no polling delay. The moment a new task meets your conditions in Asana, the workflow fires and the action in Slack happens instantly, whether it is 2 PM or 2 AM.
Which Slack channel or person receives the automated message?
You choose. When you describe your automation, you specify the exact channel name or person — for example "post to #sales-alerts" or "send a direct message to @john." You can also set up routing logic: send to different channels based on the content or priority of the triggering task.
