Why teams connect Asana and Redis Enterprise

Mirror Asana's data into Redis Enterprise so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Asana through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in Redis Enterprise.

Stacksync mirrors Teams / Workspaces, Tasks, Projects, Sections from Asana into Sorted Sets, Lists, Streams, Pub/Sub channels in Redis Enterprise and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Asana, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Stories and completion changes from Asana into a database so downstream dashboards and tools react to project progress in near real time.
  • 02 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.
  • 03 Write counters and leaderboard state from sorted sets back to an operational database for durable reporting.
  • 04 Cache CRM or ERP records into Redis hashes so applications read customer data with sub-millisecond in-memory latency instead of hitting SaaS APIs.

Common sync patterns

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

Read Asana with a query

Records from Asana are ordinary rows in Redis Enterprise; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate Asana from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in Redis Enterprise and Stacksync propagates the change into Asana, replacing custom integration code.

What you can sync between Asana and Redis Enterprise

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 Redis Enterprise objects How this pairing syncs
Tags Labels applied across Tasks; synced as a many-to-many attribute for filtering and categorization. Sets Unordered unique-member collections used for membership checks like segment or ID lists. Tags is specific to Asana and Sets to Redis Enterprise — 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. Sorted Sets Score-ordered collections used for rankings, priority queues, and time-ordered indexes. Teams / Workspaces is specific to Asana and Sorted Sets to Redis Enterprise — 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. Lists Ordered sequences often used as lightweight queues fed by sync events. Tasks is specific to Asana and Lists to Redis Enterprise — 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. Streams Append-only logs with consumer groups, used to fan sync events out to downstream services. Projects is specific to Asana and Streams to Redis Enterprise — 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. Pub/Sub channels Fire-and-forget messaging used to notify applications when synced keys change. Sections is specific to Asana and Pub/Sub channels to Redis Enterprise — 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. Search indexes Secondary indexes (RediSearch) that make synced hashes and JSON documents queryable. Custom fields is specific to Asana and Search indexes to Redis Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Asana and Redis Enterprise

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 Redis Enterprise 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 Redis Enterprise as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Redis Enterprise Asana Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Redis Enterprise for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Keyspace notifications over pub/sub or reads from Redis Streams.

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.
  • Redis Enterprise: Throughput is bounded by provisioned cluster capacity rather than published API rate limits.

How the Asana and Redis Enterprise connectors work

Asana

Integration surface
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
