Why teams connect Asana and Nimble
Sync what happens in Asana with the customer records in Nimble, 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 Stories, Users, Portfolios, Tags in Asana to Notes, Tags, Custom fields, Contacts in Nimble with bi-directional, real-time sync. Activity and record changes in Asana update the matching contact or account in Nimble, and CRM data flows the other way wherever Asana can store and use it.
Common use cases
- 01 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.
- 02 Write closed deals or new orders from a CRM or ERP into Asana Tasks to launch delivery, onboarding, or fulfillment projects automatically.
- 03 Sync Nimble contacts and companies into Postgres so ops teams can query socially enriched profile data with SQL.
- 04 Push product usage or billing flags from internal databases into Nimble custom fields so reps have context before outreach.
Common sync patterns
Where Asana handles support or shared inboxes
Tickets and conversations attach to the right contact and account in Nimble, so sales sees open issues before the next call.
Where Asana supplies contact or company data
Enriched fields land directly on records in Nimble, and refreshes keep them from going stale.
Where Asana can store CRM context: fields kept current
Owner, lifecycle stage, or account details from Nimble sync into Asana, so people working there have the context without switching tools.
What you can sync between Asana and Nimble
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 | Nimble 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. | Tasks To-do items tied to contacts, mirrored into work-management tools or reporting tables | Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. | |
| 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 Account-defined contact attributes that carry enrichment or internal identifiers | 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 Segmentation labels that map to list membership or filters in downstream systems | Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. | |
| Users Members of a workspace or organization referenced by assignee and follower fields; read to resolve GIDs to names and emails. | Notes Free-text records attached to contacts, replicated for a complete account timeline | Users is specific to Asana and Notes to Nimble — 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). | Contacts Person records with multi-value fields for email, phone, and social profiles; the primary sync entity | Portfolios is specific to Asana and Contacts to Nimble — 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. | Companies Stored as contact records with a company record type, so they sync through the same contacts resource | Teams / Workspaces is specific to Asana and Companies to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Asana and Nimble
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 Nimble 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 Nimble through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Nimble Asana Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls Nimble for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on record modification timestamps.
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.
- Nimble: Subject to per-account API request quotas.

FAQ
Asana and Nimble integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Asana and Nimble: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Asana's Tasks and Custom fields), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
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 Nimble records are not retained after a sync operation.
-
Stacksync pricing is usage-based and starts at $1,000/month, including the managed Asana and Nimble connectors, real-time two-way sync, monitoring, and support. That replaces building and maintaining a custom Asana–Nimble integration in-house.
-
Yes — Stacksync ships production-grade connectors for both Asana and Nimble. The connectors handle authentication, schema detection, rate limits, and retries; you configure the sync, and Stacksync operates it.
-
Change detection on Asana: Resource-scoped webhooks (established with an X-Hook-Secret handshake) POST events on create, change, and delete; the sync-token Events API returns incremental changes on a task or project when webhooks are not used. On Nimble: Polling on record modification timestamps. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
-
On the Asana side: Stories, Users, Portfolios, Tags, plus custom fields where Asana exposes them. On the Nimble side: Notes, Tags, Custom fields, Contacts. Stacksync auto-detects both schemas and converts types between the two systems.
