FAQ

Questions about Search Tasks.

What does the Search Tasks action do in Asana?

Searches for tasks in an Asana workspace using text and filters (assignee, project, tag, completed-on, due-on, custom fields). The right tool for cross-project queries.

What inputs does Search Tasks require?

Required: Workspace GID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Asana returns an error?

The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.

Does Search Tasks support batch operations?

Yes. Run Search Tasks inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Asana's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
