Why teams connect Asana and Google Pubsub
Connect the tickets, records, and events in Asana to the systems engineering runs in Google Pubsub, kept current in real time and in both directions.
Asana is where customer-facing and operational work happens: the tickets, conversations, contacts, and records a team touches every day. Google Pubsub is where engineering runs the systems behind that work — the issue trackers, message brokers, directories, and monitors that keep services moving. The same items, people, and events matter to both, and when the only link between them is a manual hand-off or an overnight export, each side acts on a stale copy of what the other already knows.
Stacksync syncs Tags, Teams / Workspaces, Tasks, Projects in Asana with Messages, Schemas, Snapshots, Message attributes in Google Pubsub field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync maps the overlap, resolves conflicts by rules you set, and keeps every copy current, with no middleware to build and no API limits to babysit.
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 Consume messages from a subscription via StreamingPull and write them into a Postgres or warehouse table for durable, SQL-queryable storage.
- 04 Fan out CRM record changes to a topic and let billing, analytics, and notification subscriptions each react without coupling to the source.
Common sync patterns
One shared record across both systems
Where both systems keep records for the same contacts, items, or users, a correction in either updates the other, ending dual maintenance and keeping IDs aligned for every other flow.
Where Google Pubsub tracks engineering work: requests become issues
A ticket or request raised in Asana opens or updates a matching issue in Google Pubsub, and status, comments, and resolution flow back, so support and engineering work the same item instead of retyping it.
Where Google Pubsub moves messages between services: activity lands on the stream
Records created or changed in Asana publish to the queue or topic in Google Pubsub as they happen, so downstream services react to real events rather than polling for them.
What you can sync between Asana and Google Pubsub
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 | Google Pubsub objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tags Labels applied across Tasks; synced as a many-to-many attribute for filtering and categorization. | Message attributes Up to 100 key-value pairs per message; carry routing metadata and drive subscription filter expressions. | Tags is specific to Asana and Message attributes to Google Pubsub — 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. | Dead-letter topics Destination for messages that exceed a subscription's max delivery attempts; isolates poison messages for later handling. | Teams / Workspaces is specific to Asana and Dead-letter topics to Google Pubsub — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| 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. | Ordering keys Tag messages so those sharing a key deliver in publish order when message ordering is enabled; throughput capped at 1 MBps per key. | Tasks is specific to Asana and Ordering keys to Google Pubsub — 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. | Topics Named resource publishers send to; Stacksync publishes each record change as a message to a topic for downstream subscribers to consume. | Projects is specific to Asana and Topics to Google Pubsub — 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. | Subscriptions A stream of messages from one topic; Stacksync consumes here via StreamingPull or a push endpoint, acknowledging each message after a successful write. | Sections is specific to Asana and Subscriptions to Google Pubsub — 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. | Messages The synced unit: base64-encoded data plus attributes, ordering key, messageId and publishTime; capped at 10 MB each. | Custom fields is specific to Asana and Messages to Google Pubsub — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Asana and Google Pubsub
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 Google Pubsub 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 Google Pubsub through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Google Pubsub Asana Sub-second propagation
DetectionGoogle Pubsub notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Consumes messages as they arrive on a subscription — StreamingPull (long-lived gRPC) or a push subscription delivering each message as an HTTPS POST.
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.
- Google Pubsub: Per-region throughput quotas (publish up to ~4 GB/s in large regions); 10 MB max per message and per publish request, 1,000 messages per request, and 1 MBps per ordering key.

FAQ
Asana and Google Pubsub integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Asana and Google Pubsub: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Asana's Tags and Teams / Workspaces), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
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. Google Pubsub: REST and gRPC (Cloud Pub/Sub API v1). Authentication: Google Cloud IAM via OAuth 2.0 / service-account credentials (JSON key or workload identity); requires roles such as pubsub.publisher and pubsub.subscriber. Stacksync manages authentication, retries, and rate limits on both sides.
-
Asana: Webhooks are established per resource with an X-Hook-Secret handshake and filtered by resource type and action, so a sync covering many projects registers and maintains a webhook on each target. Google Pubsub: Push subscriptions deliver as HTTPS POSTs with base64-encoded data and can carry an OIDC JWT for authentication; the endpoint must return a 2xx (or 102) to ack. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Asana and Google Pubsub 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 Google Pubsub records are not retained after a sync operation.
-
Stacksync pricing is usage-based and starts at $1,000/month, including the managed Asana and Google Pubsub connectors, real-time two-way sync, monitoring, and support. That replaces building and maintaining a custom Asana–Google Pubsub integration in-house.
-
Yes — Stacksync ships production-grade connectors for both Asana and Google Pubsub. The connectors handle authentication, schema detection, rate limits, and retries; you configure the sync, and Stacksync operates it.
