Quick start

To begin making requests against the REST API, see the quick start guide.

Usage

The Asana API is a RESTful interface with predictable resource-oriented URLs, accepts JSON or form-encoded requests, returns JSON, and uses standard HTTP features (verbs, response codes, etc.)

API endpoints are relative to the following base URL:

https://app.asana.com/api/1.0

Some requests return compact representations of objects in order to conserve resources and complete the request more efficiently. See input/output options to customize your responses.

Navigation

  • Objects (i.e., resources in the API) are ordered alphabetically in the sidebar of this API reference
  • Object schemas can be found by selecting the object in the sidebar (e.g., Attachments)
  • Select an endpoint (e.g., get a task) to see code samples, example requests, and responses

API explorer

Each API endpoint features a built-in, in-context API explorer through which you can make requests (and see responses). For notes on enumerated values (i.e., on request properties), see this documentation.
