Asana MCP: connect Asana to Claude and ChatGPT
Ask Claude or ChatGPT what’s due for you this week, what’s still open in the Website relaunch project, or what the latest comments on a task say. The answer comes from Asana, with a link to every task it relied on.
With Deployed OS everyone connects their own Asana login. The AI sees the workspaces, projects and tasks that person can see. It can create a task assigned to you, and it never completes, moves or comments on anything.

- Writes
asana_create_taskCreate a task assigned to you, with an optional description, due date and project. Nobody else is assigned or added as a follower; the project’s own notifications still apply.

Who sees what
- Reads, plus your own tasks
- The connector lists workspaces, projects and tasks, searches tasks and reads a task with its description, tags, subtask count and latest comments. Its only write is a new task assigned to you. It never completes, moves, reassigns or comments on a task.
- Each person’s own Asana
- Everyone connects their own Asana login, so the AI sees what that person sees. A private project stays private through the AI too.
- You choose who gets it
- Admins decide which groups get the Asana connector, and which of them may create tasks. Everyone else never sees it.
- Every call logged
- Every lookup and every new task is logged: who, which connector, when. Deployed OS shows reads and writes per connector and per person, and the log can be exported. Access is revoked centrally, including the day someone leaves.

Asana’s own MCP server or Deployed OS?
Asana hosts its own MCP server, now generally available in its second version. It is a good fit for one person or a developer connecting Asana to their own assistant.
Deployed OS is built for the whole company. One connection for Asana and your other tools, each person’s own login, admins choosing which groups get what, and a log of every call. The same connection works in Claude, ChatGPT and Copilot, next to your company’s skills and guardrails.
Asana MCP: common questions
Yes. Asana hosts its own MCP server, which one person can connect to their assistant. Deployed OS gives the whole company one connection for Asana and your other tools, with each person’s own login, access per group and a log of every call.
It can create a task assigned to you, with a description, due date and project, when you ask and confirm the text, if you have Edit access. Nobody else is assigned or added as a follower. It never completes, moves, reassigns or comments on a task. If you want it to do more, we can extend it for you.
Yes. Deployed OS is your company’s own MCP, so one Asana connection works in ChatGPT, Claude and Copilot. Everyone asks about their tasks in the assistant they already use, with their own Asana login.
Full task search, by words in name and description, is part of Asana’s paid plans. In a workspace without it, the AI matches task names instead and tells you the filters were not applied.
Deployed is an EU company and fully GDPR compliant, and you choose where your data is stored, down to the city. Asana tasks are read when someone asks for them.
