FAQ from MCP Server for Asana

What tools does MCP Server for Asana provide?

It provides 20 tools covering workspaces, projects, tasks, stories, subtasks, followers, dependencies, and project statuses—all documented with required and optional inputs.

What custom field types are supported?

Enum fields (use enum_option.gid), text fields (string), number fields (number), date fields (YYYY-MM-DD string), and multi-enum fields (array of enum option GIDs). See the README for details on finding custom field GIDs.

How do I find the GID for a custom field or enum option?

Use the asana_get_task tool with opt_fields set to custom_fields,custom_fields.enum_options. The response includes each field's gid, name, resource_subtype, and for enums, the enum_options array.

What are the runtime requirements?

Node.js and an Asana personal access token. The server uses the Asana REST API; no local database is stored—all data lives in Asana.

What transport does the server use?

The README does not specify the transport protocol (assumed MCP stdio or HTTP). Authentication is via an Asana API token set as an environment variable.
