Why teams connect Asana and Kustomer

Sync what happens in Asana with the customer records in Kustomer, in real time and in both directions.

The CRM is supposed to be the record of every customer relationship, but customer-relevant information also accumulates in the other tools a team runs. Whatever Asana holds or produces that touches a customer, whether conversations, payments, replies, enriched data, or notes, the CRM only benefits if it arrives without someone copying it over.

Stacksync connects Projects, Sections, Custom fields, Stories in Asana to Notes, Customers, Conversations, Messages in Kustomer with bi-directional, real-time sync. Activity and record changes in Asana update the matching contact or account in Kustomer, and CRM data flows the other way wherever Asana can store and use it.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push support tickets or intake requests from an operational database into Asana Tasks, then read completion and status Custom fields back when work finishes.
  • 02 Sync Stories and completion changes from Asana into a database so downstream dashboards and tools react to project progress in near real time.
  • 03 Escalate conversation-derived signals into the CRM as tasks or opportunities
  • 04 Sync customers bi-directionally with the CRM and ERP so agents see deal, billing, and subscription context on the timeline

Common sync patterns

Where Asana supplies contact or company data

Enriched fields land directly on records in Kustomer, and refreshes keep them from going stale.

Where Asana can store CRM context: fields kept current

Owner, lifecycle stage, or account details from Kustomer sync into Asana, so people working there have the context without switching tools.

Where Asana handles support or shared inboxes

Tickets and conversations attach to the right contact and account in Kustomer, so sales sees open issues before the next call.

What you can sync between Asana and Kustomer

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 Kustomer objects How this pairing syncs
Users Members of a workspace or organization referenced by assignee and follower fields; read to resolve GIDs to names and emails. Users Agent records map conversation ownership to people in other systems. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Tags Labels applied across Tasks; synced as a many-to-many attribute for filtering and categorization. Tags Labels on conversations and customers sync for categorization and analytics. 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.
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. Teams Team assignments support routing parity and reporting. Custom fields is specific to Asana and Teams to Kustomer — 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. Notes Internal annotations carry context alongside synced conversations. Stories is specific to Asana and Notes to Kustomer — 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). Customers The central record whose timeline aggregates every interaction; external attributes sync onto it. Portfolios is specific to Asana and Customers to Kustomer — 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. Conversations Support threads across channels sync outward for analytics and CRM context. Teams / Workspaces is specific to Asana and Conversations to Kustomer — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Asana and Kustomer

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 Kustomer 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 Kustomer through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Kustomer Asana Sub-second propagation

DetectionKustomer notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Outbound webhooks on record events, plus polling 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.
  • Kustomer: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.
