Integration
Connect Asana and Slack
When Completed task in project fires in Asana, your agent runs Send Direct Message in Slack, or New Reaction Added in Slack to Complete task in Asana. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.
What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.

What do you want Asana and Slack to do together?
Ask the assistant
Connect your AI client
Give your AI client this address.
https://mcp.apiant.aiAny client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.
Set it up in your client
Claude Code
Run this in the directory you want to work in.
claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.aiStart Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.
Claude Code guide (opens in a new tab)Claude, web and desktop
Open Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and paste the address. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first.
Setup guide (opens in a new tab)Cursor
Add the address to your MCP configuration as a server URL. Cursor signs you in in your browser.
Setup guide (opens in a new tab)Zed
Open Settings, then AI, then MCP Servers, then Add Server, then Add Remote Server.
Setup guide (opens in a new tab)Codex and the ChatGPT desktop app
Open Settings, then MCP servers, then Add server, and choose Streamable HTTP. From the terminal, Codex takes the address with its own add command and then signs you in.
Setup guide (opens in a new tab)Any other MCP client
Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.
Setup guide (opens in a new tab)Asana holds the work and Slack is where people talk about it, so the two drift apart fast. Connecting them lets an Asana project create its own Slack channel, push completed tasks and new comments into the right conversation, and turn starred Slack messages into Asana tasks so nothing stays buried in chat.

Questions
Asana and Slack, answered
Can a new Asana project get its own Slack channel automatically?
Yes. The New project in workspace trigger in Asana can create a Slack channel, set its purpose, and invite the project owner once you look them up by email. You can then write the channel name back onto the Asana project with Update project.
Can something I say in Slack become work in Asana?
Yes. Triggers like New Saved Message or New Reaction Added in Slack can feed the Create new task or Complete task actions in Asana. You choose the target project and which field the message text lands in.
What can start an automation from Asana?
Any of Asana's 10 triggers in the catalog, including Completed task in project, New comment on task, New project in workspace and New or updated task in project. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Slack when something happens in Asana?
Any of Slack's 60 actions, including Create Channel, Send Direct Message, Send Message and Create Canvas. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Slack to Asana?
Yes. When something happens in Slack, your agent can act in Asana too. This page covers both directions: Slack's triggers and Asana's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Asana or Slack?
No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.
What happens when something fails?
Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
