Asana Trigger Node Bug

Questions
1

Hello

I’ve noticed an issue with the Asana trigger, there is an option to enter a resource, which can be a project or a task. I’ve entered a project id, however, the trigger still triggers events event with projects that do not match the project id.

Has anyone else noticed similar behaviour?

@Wayne This is a known issue with the Asana trigger node - it doesn’t properly filter by resource ID in some cases. Until fixed:

  1. Add a Filter node after your Asana trigger with this condition:
{{$json.resource.gid}} == "your_project_id"
  1. Alternative workaround: Create a dedicated Asana webhook directly in Asana for just that project, then use the Webhook node in n8n instead

The issue might be related to how Asana’s webhook API handles resource filtering on their end.

Asana has acknowledged this bug and is reportedly working on a fix. However, no specific timeline for resolution has been provided. (as you can see this post on the issue on Asana forum is from 2021 : )

There you go @Wayne it seems we don’t have a perfect solution for this, the only solution we have the workaround way i suggested😄

Thanks chaps, we’ve already implemented a workaround but wanted to highlight to the n8n team in case it was a node issue :wink:
