Why teams connect Asana and Exasol
Get the data locked inside Asana into Exasol as live tables, and send results back where Asana can use them, without writing a pipeline.
Whatever Asana is used for, it accumulates data the rest of the company wants to analyze, and that data usually sits behind an API rather than in the warehouse. Building and babysitting an extraction pipeline is the tax most teams pay for it.
Stacksync syncs Sections, Custom fields, Stories, Users from Asana into tables in Exasol continuously, handling schema, rate limits, and retries. Because the sync is bi-directional, results computed in Exasol can also be written back into fields in Asana where the tool can use them.
Common use cases
- 01 Mirror Projects, Sections, and Portfolios into a warehouse for cross-team reporting on status, timelines, and workload without CSV exports.
- 02 Push support tickets or intake requests from an operational database into Asana Tasks, then read completion and status Custom fields back when work finishes.
- 03 Load CRM and ERP records into Exasol tables on a schedule so analysts query fresh operational data.
- 04 Sync computed metrics or customer segments from Exasol back into a CRM for sales and marketing use (reverse ETL).
Common sync patterns
Analytics on Asana's data
Records and events from Asana land in Exasol as queryable tables, current within seconds and ready to join with the rest of the warehouse.
Cross-tool reporting
Combine Asana's data with data from every other synced system to answer questions no single tool can.
Where Asana accepts updates: operational write-back
Segments, scores, or reference values computed in Exasol sync back onto records in Asana, putting analysis where the work happens.
What you can sync between Asana and Exasol
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 | Exasol objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tasks The primary unit of work and main record; created, updated, completed, and deleted via REST and synced two-way. Subtasks are Tasks with a parent reference. | Schemas Namespaces that group the tables a sync reads from or writes into. | Tasks is specific to Asana and Schemas to Exasol — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Projects Collections of Tasks with a layout (list, board, timeline, calendar); each project maps to a synced table scope and its custom fields define the mapping. | Tables Primary sync target; columnar relational tables written with standard SQL. | Projects is specific to Asana and Tables to Exasol — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Sections Ordered groupings of Tasks within a project; synced as a grouping attribute or category field on the row. | Views Read-only query surfaces often used as curated sources for reverse ETL. | Sections is specific to Asana and Views to Exasol — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| 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. | Virtual schemas Federated views over external sources; useful for deciding what needs physical replication. | Custom fields is specific to Asana and Virtual schemas to Exasol — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Stories Comments and activity entries on a Task; read out for history and reporting or written back as comments. | UDF scripts In-database functions that can transform synced data after load. | Stories is specific to Asana and UDF scripts to Exasol — 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. | Users and roles Grant read/write access for the dedicated integration account. | Users is specific to Asana and Users and roles to Exasol — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Asana and Exasol
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 Exasol 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 applied to Exasol as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.
Exasol Asana Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls Exasol for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling with timestamp or key columns.
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.
- Exasol: No API quota; concurrency is bounded by cluster resources and session limits.

FAQ
Asana and Exasol integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Asana and Exasol: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Asana's Tasks and Projects), 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 Exasol: Analytics on Asana's data; Cross-tool reporting; Where Asana accepts updates: operational write-back. Records and events from Asana land in Exasol as queryable tables, current within seconds and ready to join with the rest of the warehouse.

Exasol: SQL over JDBC/ODBC drivers and a WebSocket-based client protocol. Authentication: Database credentials (username and password). Stacksync manages authentication, retries, and rate limits on both sides.
-
Asana: Rate limits are per token: 1,500 requests/minute on paid plans and 150 on free, with the Search API capped at 60/minute; hitting a limit returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header. Exasol: Exasol is an in-memory, columnar MPP database that creates and maintains indexes automatically based on query patterns, rather than requiring manual index design. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Asana and Exasol 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 Exasol records are not retained after a sync operation.
