Zoom + Asana

What is Zoom?

Zoom is a secure, reliable video platform that powers all of your communication needs, including meetings, chat, phone, webinars, and online events.

Why use Zoom and Asana?

Asana and Zoom are partnering up to help teams have more purposeful and focused meetings. The Zoom + Asana integration makes it easy to prepare for meetings, hold actionable conversations, and access information once the call is over. Meetings begin in Asana, where shared meeting agendas provide visibility and context about what will be discussed. During the meeting, team members can quickly create tasks within Zoom, so details and action items don’t get lost. And once the meeting is over, the Zoom + Asana integration pulls meeting transcripts and recordings into Asana, so all collaborators and stakeholders can review the meeting as needed.

Preparing for a meeting with Asana and Zoom

Create a Zoom meeting directly from an Asana task. Plus, add additional context like the meeting agenda or any documents, files, or slide decks that team members should read ahead of time. Adding the Zoom meeting to additional tasks will automatically add them as agenda items to the meeting.

Capture action items during Zoom meetings

When the meeting starts, all the linked tasks will appear in the Asana app inside Zoom, so the team knows what to discuss. As the meeting progresses, create and assign Asana tasks and subtasks directly within Zoom. Easily capture action items without having to switch between apps.

Keeping work moving forward after Zoom meetings

After the meeting, Zoom recordings and transcripts are automatically attached to the Asana task. These same transcripts are searchable within Asana. Now, team members and collaborators can access all of the action items and notes created during the meeting, as well as a recording of what was discussed.
