Get attachments from an object

Returns the compact records for all attachments on the object.

There are three possible parent values for this request: project, project_brief, and task. For a project, an attachment refers to a file uploaded to the "Key resources" section in the project Overview. For a project brief, an attachment refers to inline files in the project brief itself. For a task, an attachment refers to a file directly associated to that task.

Note that within the Asana app, inline images in the task description do not appear in the index of image thumbnails nor as stories in the task. However, requests made to GET /attachments for a task will return all of the images in the task, including inline images.

Customizing the response

Requests to this endpoint return "compact" attachment objects (schema) by default. To include more fields in the response, see input/output options.

Query Params
integer
1 to 100

Results per page.
The number of objects to return per page. The value must be between 1 and 100.

string

Offset token.
An offset to the next page returned by the API. A pagination request will return an offset token, which can be used as an input parameter to the next request. If an offset is not passed in, the API will return the first page of results.
Note: You can only pass in an offset that was returned to you via a previously paginated request.

string
required

Globally unique identifier for object to fetch statuses from. Must be a GID for a project, project_brief, or task.

array of strings

This endpoint returns a resource which excludes some properties by default. To include those optional properties, set this query parameter to a comma-separated list of the properties you wish to include.

opt_fields
boolean

Provides “pretty” output.
Provides the response in a “pretty” format. In the case of JSON this means doing proper line breaking and indentation to make it readable. This will take extra time and increase the response size so it is advisable only to use this during debugging.

Conditional. This property is only present when a limit query parameter is provided in the request. When making a paginated request, the API will return a number of results as specified by the limit parameter. If more results exist, then the response will contain a next_page attribute, which will include an offset, a relative path attribute, and a full uri attribute. If there are no more pages available, next_page will be null and no offset will be provided. Note that an offset token will expire after some time, as data may have changed.

Pagination offset for the request.

string

A relative path containing the query parameters to fetch for next_page
