Asana Tips: Tasks in multiple projects

Don't duplicate work! Keep the same task in multiple projects, so teammates across different projects and teams can have the same visibility.

Hey there. Peter here from the customer success team to share one of my favorite Asana tips, adding task to multiple different projects.

This tip really comes in handy when you have various teammates who need access to the same work across different projects.

Open the task and hover over the project name. Click the plus button that appears, or type tab p to use the keyboard shortcut.

Then start typing the name of the other projects you wanna add it to. The same task now appears in both projects.

If you change, comment on, or complete the task in either project, the changes will be reflected across all the project it's in. 

Adding tasks to multiple projects helps my teammates and me keep work connected. Give it a try.

Examples:

  • Adding a task you're working on to a 1:1 project with your manager.
  • Adding work from a product launch project into your team's sprint project.

You can also use the keyboard shortcut "Tab P" and type the name of the other projects you want to add it to.
