## Description

Returns tags in an Asana workspace, up to 100 by default (increase `maxResults` for more) — not guaranteed to include every tag in a large workspace. Use this to discover tag GIDs before applying tags to tasks with **Create Task** or **Create Subtask** (the `tags` prop). Example: call with `workspace: '1200123456789012'` → returns tags like `[{gid: '1202345678901234', name: 'urgent'}]`. [See the documentation](https://developers.asana.com/reference/gettags)

## Props

| Prop | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `workspace` | `string` | Yes | The workspace GID to list tags for, e.g. 1200123456789012. Use the List Workspaces action to find available workspace GIDs. |
| `maxResults` | `integer` | No | The maximum total number of results to return across all paginated API calls. Each page fetches up to 100 items (Asana's maximum); this cap is applied after auto-pagination completes. |

  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const accessToken = await pd.rawAccessToken

const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(

    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "asana-list-tags",
  arguments: {
    workspace: "Workspace",
    maxResults: 10,
  },
})
```
