Two-way sync
Changes in Asana or Orderful instantly reflect in both systems. No stale data, no manual imports.
Keep Asana and Orderful in sync without custom scripts. Cut weeks of integration work, eliminate silent data drift, and give your team a single, reliable source of truth.
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 Tags, Teams / Workspaces, Tasks, Projects in Asana with Validation guidelines, Acknowledgments, Webhook events, Transactions in Orderful 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.
When work started in one tool continues in the other, the shared fields travel with it automatically.
Contact and company details corrected in either tool update the other, so nobody works from the old version.
Payments, replies, messages, or tickets created in one tool can create or update matching records in the other, keeping context in one place.
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 | Orderful 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. | Acknowledgments 997 functional acknowledgments confirming receipt of transmitted documents | Tasks is specific to Asana and Acknowledgments to Orderful — 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. | Webhook events Push notifications for inbound documents and transaction status changes | Projects is specific to Asana and Webhook events to Orderful — 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. | Transactions EDI documents such as 850 purchase orders, 810 invoices, and 856 ship notices, represented as JSON | Sections is specific to Asana and Transactions to Orderful — 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. | Trading partners The retailers, carriers, and suppliers a company exchanges documents with | Custom fields is specific to Asana and Trading partners to Orderful — 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. | Relationships Active partner connections per transaction type that govern what can be sent and received | Stories is specific to Asana and Relationships to Orderful — 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. | Validation guidelines Partner-specific rules transactions are checked against before delivery | Users is specific to Asana and Validation guidelines to Orderful — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
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.
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 Orderful through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Real-time sync, workflow automation, event queues, EDI, and monitoring, for every Asana–Orderful connection.
Changes in Asana or Orderful instantly reflect in both systems. No stale data, no manual imports.
Trigger automated workflows whenever Asana or Orderful data changes, update records, fire webhooks, or kick off sequences without brittle API scripts.
Handle millions of events per minute without losing a single Asana or Orderful record.
Track your Asana ⇄ Orderful sync health, view errors, and replay failed events in one click.
Transform legacy EDI complexity into simple database interactions between Asana and Orderful.
Configure and sync within minutes, no code. Whether you sync 50k or 100M+ records, Stacksync handles the queues, infra, and plumbing. Integrations are non-invasive and need zero setup on your systems.
Authenticate Asana and Orderful with each platform's native method — OAuth, API keys, or service accounts — plus secure options like SSH tunneling, IP whitelisting, and VPC peering.
Pick the Asana and Orderful objects to sync — Stacksync auto-detects both schemas, including custom fields where the platform exposes them. Sync to existing tables, or let Stacksync create new ones with ideal data types.
Fields map automatically even when names and types differ. Stacksync handles transformation and type casting for you, zero configuration required.
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Asana and Orderful: 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.
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 Orderful: Webhooks push inbound transactions and status events; polling available as fallback. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
On the Asana side: Tags, Teams / Workspaces, Tasks, Projects, plus custom fields where Asana exposes them. On the Orderful side: Validation guidelines, Acknowledgments, Webhook events, Transactions. Stacksync auto-detects both schemas and converts types between the two systems.
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 Orderful: 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. Orderful: REST API (JSON). Authentication: API key. Stacksync manages authentication, retries, and rate limits on both sides.
