MCP
One MCP session, both toolsets
One session gives your product or agent every Asana and monday tool at once — connect once, list tools, and call them like any single-app session.
// accessToken: mint a short-lived token with the Connect SDK — see the MCP guide

One user, two connected accounts
Your user connects each account once, under whatever ID they already have in your product. The two stay independent — either can be revoked on its own — and your code reaches both through that one user.

Add Task To Section
actionMoves a task into a specific section within an Asana project, removing it from any other section it currently occupies in that project. Use Search Sections to find the section GID and Search Tasks to find the task GID. Returns an empty object{}on success. Example: call withproject: '1204567890123456',task: '1202345678901234',section_gid: '1203456789012345'→ task is moved into that section and returns{}. See the documentationWritev1.0.0 -
Create Project
actionCreates a new project in an Asana workspace or team. Use this to set up a new initiative, sprint, or work stream. For organization workspaces you must supply ateamGID (use List Teams to find it). Returns the new project record including itsgid. Example: call withprojectName: 'Q4 Marketing Campaign',workspace: '1200123456789012',team: '1203456789012345',defaultView: 'board'→ returns{gid: '1204567890123456', name: 'Q4 Marketing Campaign'}. See the documentationWritev1.0.0 -
Create Subtask
actionCreates a new subtask nested under an existing parent task. Use this when the work is a sub-item of another task; for top-level tasks use Create Task. The parent task GID is required. Returns the new subtask record including itsgid. Example: call withtask_gid: '1202345678901234',subtaskName: 'Write first draft',due_on: '2026-10-05'→ returns{gid: '1207890123456789', name: 'Write first draft', resource_type: 'task'}. See the documentationWritev1.0.0 -
Create Task
actionCreates a new task in Asana. Use this to add a standalone task to a workspace or project. For subtasks, use Create Subtask instead; for template-based tasks, use Create Task from Template. Returns the new task record including itsgid. Example: call withtaskName: 'Review Q3 report',workspace: '1200123456789012',due_on: '2026-10-01'→ returns{gid: '1202345678901234', name: 'Review Q3 report', resource_type: 'task'}. See the documentationWritev1.0.0 -
Create Task Comment
actionAdds a comment (story) to an existing Asana task. Use this to post a text update or pinned note visible to task followers. Provide eithertext(plain text) orhtml_text(HTML-formatted), but not both. Returns the new story record including itsgidandtype. Example: call withtask_gid: '1202345678901234',text: 'Approved — ready to ship!'→ returns{gid: '1209012345678901', type: 'comment', text: 'Approved — ready to ship!'}. See the documentationWritev1.0.0 -
Create Task from Template
actionCreates a new Asana task by instantiating an existing task template. Use this when a team has a reusable task structure (e.g. a bug-report or onboarding template); for ad-hoc tasks use Create Task. Use List Task Templates to find the template GID. This kicks off an asynchronous job — the response is a job resource, not the finished task;new_task.gidis available immediately but the task's fields may still be populating, so use Find Task by ID if you need to confirm it's ready. The new task's project and memberships are determined by the template itself, not by any project passed here. Example: call withtaskTemplateId: '1205678901234567',name: 'Bug: Login page crash'→ returns{gid: '1205555555555555', resource_type: 'job', new_task: {gid: '1206789012345678'}}. See the documentationWritev1.0.0 -
Delete Task
actionDeletes an Asana task. This moves the task to the deleting user's trash and removes it from active views immediately; it can be recovered for 30 days before Asana permanently removes it. Use Find Task by ID to confirm the task GID before deleting. Returns an empty data object{}on success. Example: call withtask_gid: '1202345678901234'→ returns{}. See the documentationWritev1.0.0 -
Find Task by ID
actionRetrieves the complete record for a single Asana task by its GID. Use this to fetch full task details (description, assignee, due date, custom fields) after obtaining a task GID from Search Tasks. UseoptFieldsto request additional fields not returned by default. Example: call withtask_gid: '1202345678901234',optFields: ['due_on','assignee','custom_fields']→ returns the full task record for that GID. See the documentationRead-onlyv1.0.0

Create an Update
actionPost an update (a comment) on an item, or reply to an existing update. Use to add a note to an item's activity feed; this changes no column value — use Update Column Values for that. SetBoard ID,Item IDandUpdate Body, and setParent Update IDonly when replying to an existing update rather than starting a new thread. Example: Update BodyDesign approved, moving to build. Returns the new update's ID as a string. Use Get Board Items Page to find anItem ID. See the documentationWritev0.0.19 -
Create Board
actionCreate a new board in a workspace. Use when you need a new board before adding groups, columns or items to it. SetBoard NameandBoard Kind(public,privateorshare); if you omitWorkspace IDthe board is created in the Main Workspace. Example: Board NameQ3 Campaigns, Board Kindpublic. Returns the new board's ID as a string (e.g.2419687965), not the full board object — call List Boards if you need its details. Use List Workspace ID Options to find a validWorkspace ID. See the documentationWritev0.0.16 -
Create Column
actionAdd a column to an existing board. Use when a board is missing a field you need before setting values with Create Item or Update Column Values. SetBoard ID,TitleandColumn Type(e.g.status,text,date,numbers).Custom Labels (Defaults)is accepted only whenColumn Typeisstatusordropdownand is rejected for any other type. Example: TitlePriority, Column Typestatus, Custom Labels{ "1": "High", "2": "Low" }. Returns the new column's ID as a string (e.g.status_1). Call List Columns afterwards to confirm the ID and the labels it accepts. See the documentationWritev0.1.8 -
Create Group
actionCreate a group (a titled section of rows) on a board. Use when you need somewhere to put new rows before calling Create Item, which takes an optionalGroup ID. SetBoard IDandGroup Name. Example: Board ID2419687965, Group NameIn Progress. Returns the new group's ID as a string (e.g.new_group12345) — pass that value asGroup IDto Create Item. Use List Board ID Options to find a validBoard ID. See the documentationWritev0.0.17 -
Create Item
actionCreate an item (a row) on a board. Use for a top-level row; use Create Subitem for a row nested under an existing item. SetBoard IDandItem Name, and optionallyGroup IDandColumn Values. Call List Columns first to get the column IDs and the labels astatusordropdowncolumn accepts. Example: Item NameWebsite redesign, Column Values{ "status": "Working on it", "date4": "2026-09-02", "numbers": 42 }. SetItem Create Labelstotrueto allow missingstatus/dropdownlabels to be created, which requires permission to change the board structure. Returns the new item's ID as a string (e.g.9876543210). See the documentationWritev0.1.9 -
Create Subitem
actionCreate a subitem nested under an existing item. Use when the row belongs to a parent item; use Create Item for a top-level row. SetBoard ID(the parent item's board),Parent Item IDandItem Name. Gotcha: subitems live on a separate subitems board, soColumn Valuesmust use that board's column IDs — run List Columns against the subitems board, not the board selected here. Example: Item NameDraft copy, Column Values{ "status": "Done" }. Returns the new subitem's ID as a string. See the documentationWritev0.1.9 -
Get Board Items Page
actionList every item (row) on a board, following the API's cursor automatically so all pages are returned in a single call — you do not need to paginate. Use when you want the whole board; use Get Items By Column Value to filter server-side by one column, which is far cheaper on a large board. SetBoard ID, and optionallyQuery Paramsto filter or sort. Example: Query Params{ "rules": [{ "column_id": "status", "compare_value": ["Done"], "operator": "any_of" }] }. Returns an array of items withid,name,state, timestamps and column values. Gotcha: a large board returns every row in one response, so expect a slow call and a large payload. See the documentationRead-onlyv0.0.7 -
Get Column Values
actionRead the column values of one item. Use when you already have anItem IDand want its field values; use Get Items By Column Value to search for items by a value instead. SetBoard IDandItem ID; leaveColumn IDsempty to return every column, or pass specific column IDs from List Columns. Example: Item ID9876543210, Column IDs["status", "date4"]. Returns an array holding the item and acolumn_valuesarray of{ id, value }pairs, wherevalueis the column's display text when one exists and the raw JSON value otherwise.
