Step-by-Step Guide: Connecting Typeform and Asana

This guide will walk you through setting up an automation where every new Typeform submission creates a corresponding task in Asana using an integration platform. For this example, we will use Make.com.

1. Sign Up or Log In to Your Integration Platform

   Navigate to Make.com. If you do not have an account, sign up for one. If you already have an account, log in.

2. Create a New Scenario

   Once logged in, click the "Create a new scenario" button on your dashboard. This will open the visual builder where you will design your automation.

3. Add Typeform as the Trigger Module

   • In the scenario builder, click the large circle with a plus sign (+) to add your first module.
   • Search for "Typeform" and select it from the list of apps.
   • Choose the "Watch Responses" trigger module. This module will listen for new submissions to your chosen Typeform.

4. Connect Your Typeform Account

   • Click "Add" next to the "Connection" field to connect your Typeform account.
   • A pop-up window will appear, prompting you to authorize Make.com to access your Typeform account. Follow the instructions to grant permission.
   • Once connected, select the specific Typeform you want to use for this automation from the "Form ID" dropdown list.
   • Click "OK" to save the Typeform trigger module.

5. Add Asana as an Action Module

   • Click the "Add another module" button (the smaller circle with a plus sign) next to your Typeform module.
   • Search for "Asana" and select it from the list of apps.
   • Choose the "Create a Task" action module. This is the most common action for this integration. You could also choose "Create a Project" or "Update a Task" depending on your needs.

6. Connect Your Asana Account

   • Click "Add" next to the "Connection" field for the Asana module.
   • A pop-up window will prompt you to authorize Make.com to access your Asana account. Grant the necessary permissions.
   • Once connected, you will need to select the "Workspace ID" where the task should be created.

7. Map Typeform Fields to Asana Task Details

   This is where you define how data from your Typeform submission populates your Asana task:

   • Project ID: Select the specific Asana project where new tasks should be added.
   • Task Name: Use data from your Typeform to dynamically create the task name. For example, you might map a "Name" field from your Typeform to the Asana task name, perhaps prefixed with "New Request: ".
   • Notes: Populate the task description with additional details from the Typeform submission. You can combine multiple fields here (e.g., "Email: [Email Field], Message: [Message Field]").
   • Assignee ID (Optional): If your Typeform includes a field for assigning a task to a specific team member, you can map that here. Alternatively, you can leave it unassigned or set a default assignee.
   • Due On (Optional): Map a date field from your Typeform or set a default due date for the task.
   • Other Fields: Fill in any other relevant Asana task fields using the data available from your Typeform responses.

   Use the mapping panel to drag and drop or select Typeform fields into the corresponding Asana fields. Click "OK" when mapping is complete.

8. Test Your Scenario

   • Save your scenario.
   • Click the "Run once" button at the bottom left of the scenario builder.
   • Go to your live Typeform and submit a test entry.
   • Return to Make.com and observe the scenario execution. If successful, you should see data flowing from Typeform to Asana.
   • Check your target Asana project to confirm that a new task has been created with the correct information from your test submission.

9. Activate Your Scenario

   If the test run was successful, toggle the scenario "ON" in the bottom left corner of the builder. Your integration is now active, and new Typeform submissions will automatically create tasks in Asana.

Popular Use Cases for Typeform and Asana Integration

The Typeform and Asana connection can be adapted to various business processes, significantly enhancing efficiency:

• Lead Management: Automatically create a new Asana task for each new lead submission via a Typeform contact or inquiry form. This ensures sales teams follow up promptly, with all lead details included directly in the task description.
• Client Onboarding: When a new client completes an onboarding questionnaire or service agreement via Typeform, an entire Asana project with a predefined set of onboarding tasks (e.g., "Set up account," "Schedule kickoff meeting," "Assign project manager") can be initiated, ensuring consistency and completeness.
• Internal Request Forms: Automate internal processes such as IT support requests, HR inquiries, or marketing content requests. A Typeform submission can create an Asana task, assign it to the correct department, and populate it with all necessary details for resolution, reducing manual sorting and assignment.

Estimated Time Savings and ROI

Implementing an integration between Typeform and Asana offers tangible time savings and a strong return on investment (ROI). Consider a scenario where your team processes 50 form submissions per week, each requiring approximately 5 minutes of manual data entry, task creation, and information transfer into Asana. This amounts to 250 minutes (over 4 hours) of manual work weekly, totaling approximately 200 hours annually.

With an automated Typeform and Asana connection, this manual effort is virtually eliminated. The immediate creation of tasks and projects, complete with all necessary details, allows your team to redirect their focus from administrative tasks to strategic work. This automation reduces human error, ensures data consistency, and accelerates response times, leading to improved client satisfaction and operational agility. The ROI comes not only from the direct time saved but also from the increased accuracy, faster project initiation, and enhanced team productivity across the organization.

FAQ

How secure is the data transfer between Typeform and Asana?

When using a reputable integration platform like Make.com, data transfer typically occurs over encrypted connections (HTTPS/SSL). Both Typeform and Asana are designed with security in mind, and the integration platform acts as a secure intermediary, adhering to industry best practices for data privacy and protection. Always review the security policies of the integration platform you choose.

Can I update an existing Asana task based on a Typeform submission?

Yes, many integration platforms allow for advanced scenarios where you can update an existing Asana task rather than always creating a new one. This usually requires a unique identifier (like an email address or client ID) from the Typeform submission that can be used to search for and match an existing task in Asana. If a match is found, the scenario can be configured to update specific fields of that task.

What if a Typeform submission fails to create an Asana task?

Most integration platforms include robust error handling. If a Typeform submission fails to create an Asana task (e.g., due to an invalid project ID, missing required fields, or a temporary API issue), the platform will typically log the error and may offer options for re-running the failed operation or sending notifications. It's good practice to set up alerts for scenario failures to quickly address any integration issues.
