The MCP Server for Asana provides a range of features, such as filtering tasks by advanced criteria, sorting, and including optional fields. It also supports custom field filters for tasks.

Q&A

Does the server support task creation?

Yes, when not in read‑only mode, it provides a tool to create new tasks, but this capability is disabled if READ_ONLY_MODE is set to true.

Asked by Wanjiru Kamau · Mar 23, 2026

Which Asana entities can I query through the MCP server?

The server supports workspaces, projects, tasks, and comments. You can list workspaces, search projects by regex, search tasks with filters, and retrieve task details or comments.

Asked by Femi Adebayo · Feb 8, 2026

Can I use the server only for reading Asana data?

Yes, by enabling READ_ONLY_MODE the server disables task creation, updates, and deletes, allowing safe testing or data integrity checks while still supporting listing and searching.

Asked by Björn Karlsson · Jan 15, 2026

What is required to set up the MCP Server for Asana?

You need an Asana access token stored in the environment variable ASANA_ACCESS_TOKEN. Optionally, set READ_ONLY_MODE=true to disable write operations.
