Hyper for Asana

What Hyper reads

Hyper keeps a searchable copy of the tasks in every project that you can see, in all your Asana workspaces, from all time, including completed tasks. It also copies your own tasks that are in no project. For each task, it copies the name, description, assignee, dates, status, projects and sections, tags, custom fields, followers, subtasks, comments, and the names of attached files, but not what is inside the files. It also copies projects with their status updates, the portfolios that you own, goals, teams, and the names and emails of the people in each workspace. Hyper gets most changes within minutes, and also checks about every 10 minutes. A deleted comment or file can stay in Hyper for up to a week. When you ask, Hyper can also read anything else that you can see in Asana, such as task history, time tracking, and attached files.

What Hyper can do

Create, change, copy, and delete tasks, subtasks, projects, sections, portfolios, goals, tags, and custom fields. Assign tasks, set dates, add followers, and link tasks that depend on each other. Add, change, and delete comments and status updates. Upload and delete attached files. Add and remove people in teams, projects, and workspaces. Manage time tracking and templates, run rules, and start exports. Hyper asks you before each action, unless you chose to always allow that kind of action. It always asks before it uploads a file.

Before you connect

Hyper can read everything that you can see in Asana, including private projects that you are in. Changes show your name, and Asana notifies the people who are assigned to or follow a task. You can restore a deleted task or project from the trash for 30 days. Portfolios need a paid Asana plan. Your Asana admin can block apps like Hyper. Anyone who can write a task or comment can add text that hides instructions that try to trick an assistant, so check each change before you approve it.
