Import the collection into your Asana as a project

Click on the button below to instantly import the above collection as a project into your Asana space, which includes all the custom fields  listed above. Make sure you are logged into to your Asana account on your default browser.

Clicking this button will open your Asana account in a new browser tab. The import process may take a few seconds, please wait for it to complete.

💡 You should find the imported project added to the first team in your sidebar under the 'Teams' section.

🔒 The project is set to private so only you will initially have access to it. Feel free to move it to another Team.

❗ If your Asana account is connected to multiple Asana instances (Organizations or Workspaces), the project will import into the Asana space that you last switched to, from your profile / avatar dropdown menu.

❗ If you get an error message during import, it means your Asana is in a non-US data center which is not currently supported, sorry!

Add the custom fields to your Asana library

For each custom field that you want to add to your library, repeat the following:

From the header of the custom field's name, click the down arrow and from the dropdown menu, select 'Edit field'.

Checkmark the first box which says 'Add to [Your organization]'s field library' to add the custom field to your Asana library.

Edit the custom field as you like

For each custom field that you want to edit, repeat the following:

From the header of the custom field's name, click the down arrow and from the dropdown menu select 'Edit field', as per step 2.

Edit the field name and options as you wish; you can also change the emojis and colours of the options for any single-select and multi-select fields.

Instructions 02b2.jpg

❗ For single-select, multi-select, date and people type custom fields, you will have the option to 'Notify task collaborators when this field's value is changed'. Choose carefully whether you want to notify others whenever a member changes a value of this field or not. In some cases you may prefer not to select this, in order to reduce the amount of notifications that all task collaborators will receive in their Asana Inbox.

Instructions 02b2.jpg

❗ For Business plan and above, you will have the option 'Only you can edit this field's settings'. Selecting this field will lock it so that the only you can make changes to the field's name and options. However, note that Administrators of your Asana space are the only ones who can override this.

Delete or archive the project you imported

Once you have added the required custom fields to your library, you no longer need the project that you imported in step 1 so you can either:

  • Delete the project if you have added all the custom fields to your library.

  • Archive the project if you may want to add some custom fields to your library later on.
     

Feel free to move the project into another Team which is dedicated for storing such projects.
