GitLab + Asana

What is GitLab?

GitLab is a centralized cloud or on-premise platform for teams to manage the entire software development lifecycle. It offers a code repository, tools for automated testing and deployment, and security features to protect your codebase.

Why sync Asana + GitLab?

With GitLab + Asana powered by Unito you can automatically dispatch Asana tasks from GitLab, populate your repositories with Asana task information, or both simultaneously with 2-way sync. Unito allows you to sync issues, pull requests, projects, comments, assignees, custom fields, and more.

Use cases

• Collaborate across business and software teams: Align project managers, product managers, marketers, or stakeholders in Asana on development work happening in GitLab with real-time updates. Link status, comments, attachments and any changes automatically with 2-way sync.
• Exchange with external organizations: Share updates and information with clients, customers, freelancers or other external contacts in disparate tools, all from Asana.
• Parallel data migration: Transfer data directly from GitLab to Asana, keeping both apps running in sync for as long as needed for a smooth migration.

How to connect GitLab + Asana

1. Sign up for Unito (paid plans scale by usage).
2. Connect your Asana and GitLab accounts
3. Set a 1- or 2-way flow direction. This tells Unito where to automatically create items based on your manual activity.
4. Apply rules to filter issues or tasks from syncing. For example, only sync issues or tasks with certain labels or tags.
5. Link individual fields between Asana tasks and GitLab issues in a field mapping table. This step also determines the sync direction of real-time updates.

Once you've followed those steps, tasks from a single Asana project will sync to a single GitLab repository.
