Asana ACTION
List Task Templates
Returns task templates in an Asana project, up to 100 by default (increase
maxResults for more) — not guaranteed to include every template in a project with many. Use this to discover task template GIDs before calling Create Task from Template (the taskTemplate prop). Example: call with project: '1204567890123456' → returns templates like [{gid: '1205678901234567', name: 'Bug Report Template'}]. See the documentation- Action

IMPLEMENTATION
Call this tool
Connect a user's Asana account once, then configure and run List Task Templates from your backend or agent.
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"
const pd = new PipedreamClient({
projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
projectEnvironment: "production",
})
const result = await pd.actions.run({
id: "asana-list-task-templates",
externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
configuredProps: {
asana: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
project: "Project",
maxResults: 10,
},
})

Inputs
Pipedream supplies the connected account. Your application provides the operation-specific values below. Dynamic inputs are resolved against that user's account.
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
project Project | string | List of projects. This field uses the project GID (e.g. 1204567890123456). Use Search Projects to find available project GIDs (the gid field). Required |
maxResults Max Results | integer | 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. Optional |
REFERENCE
Tool details
Behavior hints are published with the component in the Pipedream registry and surface as MCP tool annotations, so an agent can reason about a tool before it calls it.
