Key Features & Sync Details

• Real-Time Updates: Manage projects and update tasks in real time, maintaining full visibility over project progress.
• Sync Users, Projects, Tags, Tasks and Sub-Tasks: Automatically sync all relevant Asana activities into Timely, ensuring that your projects and tasks are always up to date in both tools.
• Log Time Seamlessly: When you log time against a synced Task in Timely, it automatically updates the tracked time in Asana.
• Tag Synchronization: Tags from Asana will appear in Timely as individual tags, helping you keep everything organized.

AI-Powered Automation:

• Timely’s AI learns from your logged entries to draft complete timesheets for your Asana activity

Customization: You can set up the integration to fit your specific workflow by selecting the projects you want to sync and aligning your teams and projects

Security: Uses OAuth authentication, encrypted data transfer, and enterprise-grade reliability. Built-in safeguards prevent duplication and data loss, such as preserving task data when items are deleted in Asana and preventing duplicate imports if you reconnect the integration.
