Why teams connect Asana and Atlassian
Stop re-entering the same information in Asana and Atlassian: Stacksync keeps the records they share consistent in real time, in both directions.
Two tools in the daily stack often hold overlapping information: the same people, the same companies, or the same pieces of work, described twice. The tools do different jobs, so consolidating is not the answer; the overlap just needs to stop drifting.
Stacksync syncs Projects, Sections, Custom fields, Stories in Asana with Attachments, Custom Fields, Workflows and Statuses, Users and Groups in Atlassian in real time. You choose which records overlap, map the fields that should match, and pick a direction or let changes flow both ways. From then on, an update made in either tool is reflected in the other within seconds, without exports or copy-paste.
Because the sync is field-level, each tool keeps its own extras; only the shared data is held in agreement.
Common use cases
- 01 Sync Stories and completion changes from Asana into a database so downstream dashboards and tools react to project progress in near real time.
- 02 Two-way sync of Tasks and their Custom fields between an Asana project and Postgres so ops teams work in SQL while project owners stay in Asana.
- 03 Create Jira issues from records in other systems, such as onboarding tasks generated from a closed-won CRM deal.
- 04 Keep Jira and a second tracker (for example a customer's Jira instance) aligned during co-delivery projects.
Common sync patterns
Handoffs between teams
When work started in one tool continues in the other, the shared fields travel with it automatically.
Where both tools track people or companies: one consistent record
Contact and company details corrected in either tool update the other, so nobody works from the old version.
Where one tool produces events: mirror them in the other
Payments, replies, messages, or tickets created in one tool can create or update matching records in the other, keeping context in one place.
What you can sync between Asana and Atlassian
Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.
| Asana objects | Atlassian objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Custom fields Typed fields (text, number, enum, multi-enum, date, people) defined at project or workspace level; mapped to database columns, with enum values written by option GID. | Custom Fields Instance-specific fields (customfield IDs) that carry most business-specific data in syncs. | Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. Custom fields on either side are included in the mapping. | |
| Stories Comments and activity entries on a Task; read out for history and reporting or written back as comments. | Jira Projects Containers that scope issues, workflows, and permissions for a sync. | Stories is specific to Asana and Jira Projects to Atlassian — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Users Members of a workspace or organization referenced by assignee and follower fields; read to resolve GIDs to names and emails. | Boards and Sprints Agile structures read to report on sprint contents and status. | Users is specific to Asana and Boards and Sprints to Atlassian — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Portfolios Collections of Projects for program-level rollup; read for cross-project status and progress reporting (Business and Enterprise). | Issue Comments Threaded discussion synced into linked tickets in external systems. | Portfolios is specific to Asana and Issue Comments to Atlassian — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Tags Labels applied across Tasks; synced as a many-to-many attribute for filtering and categorization. | Attachments Files on issues mirrored to paired records where needed. | Tags is specific to Asana and Attachments to Atlassian — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Teams / Workspaces Organizational containers that hold projects and members; used to scope which projects a given sync covers. | Workflows and Statuses Status transitions mapped to stages in the paired system. | Teams / Workspaces is specific to Asana and Workflows and Statuses to Atlassian — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Asana and Atlassian
Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.
Asana Atlassian Sub-second propagation
DetectionAsana notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Resource-scoped webhooks (established with an X-Hook-Secret handshake) POST events on create, change, and delete.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Atlassian through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Atlassian Asana Sub-second propagation
DetectionAtlassian notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks on issue and page events, plus JQL polling on the updated timestamp for backfill.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Asana through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Rate-limit considerations
- Asana: Per token: 1,500 requests/minute on paid plans, 150/minute on free; the Search API is capped at 60/minute; concurrency caps at 50 GET and 15 write requests. Exceeding a limit returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header, and a separate cost-based limiter applies to complex graph traversals.

FAQ
Asana and Atlassian integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Asana and Atlassian: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Asana's Custom fields and Stories), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.
-
Common patterns for Asana and Atlassian: Handoffs between teams; Where both tools track people or companies: one consistent record; Where one tool produces events: mirror them in the other. When work started in one tool continues in the other, the shared fields travel with it automatically.
-
Asana: REST API (app.asana.com/api/1.0, JSON responses), plus resource-scoped Webhooks and a sync-token Events API. Authentication: OAuth 2.0 for multi-user apps, Personal Access Tokens (PATs) for single-account use and testing, and organization-scoped Service Accounts (Enterprise) for admin-level access. Atlassian: REST APIs per product (Jira Cloud and Confluence Cloud). Authentication: OAuth 2.0 (3LO) for apps or API tokens with basic auth for scripts. Stacksync manages authentication, retries, and rate limits on both sides.
-
Asana: The API is REST/JSON with offset-token pagination (limit and offset params), so large projects are read page by page rather than in one call. Atlassian: JQL supports querying issues by updated time, which gives polling syncs a reliable incremental cursor. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Asana and Atlassian without custom code.
-
Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified with HIPAA BAA support. Data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means Asana and Atlassian records are not retained after a sync operation.
