AI 产品解读Official Asana Chrome extension that provides a browser sidebar for creating, searching, viewing, and editing Asana tasks without leaving the current webpage.
Eliminates context-switching between the browser and Asana by allowing users to manage tasks inline — create tasks from any webpage, emails, or selected text, and search/edit tasks alongside their current work.
User clicks the extension icon to open a sidebar overlay on any webpage. The sidebar loads the Asana web app interface, authenticated via browser cookies from asana.com. Users can create tasks (from URL, selected text, or manually), search existing tasks, and edit task details. In Gmail, a contextual 'Create task' button appears on emails for quick task creation.

- 目标用户
- Asana users who manage projects and tasks / Teams using Asana for work management / Knowledge workers who need quick task capture from any webpage
- The two main bundle files (sidebar.js at 55MB, background_bundle.js at 47MB) are heavily minified and contain embedded web app code, making deep inspection impractical
- No explicit login flow or auth API call was found in readable source — authentication mechanism inferred from cookie permission and host_permissions
- Could not confirm whether any features are gated behind Asana's paid plans (e.g., Business/Enterprise) from the extension code alone
付费分析未识别到付费功能
No payment, subscription, billing, upgrade, or feature-gating code was found in the extension source. The extension itself is free. The store description mentions Asana is 'free to get started' — Asana as a destination service has paid business plans, but the extension does not gate features behind payment or show upgrade UI.

- The extension requests the 'cookies' permission and has host_permissions for https://*.asana.com/*, indicating it reads Asana session cookies to authenticate with the Asana API. The extension is an official Asana sidebar/launcher that creates and searches tasks — all core workflows require an authenticated Asana account. No login UI is built into the extension itself; it relies on the user already being logged into asana.com in their browser.
It works, but veeeery slow - on the first attempt it hasn't loaded at all, on next ones it takes 5 sec to load - not good for the productivity app!
Unusable. All you get is spinning circle after installation. I'm sure this is an easy fix, surprised this isn't fixed ASAP.
Doesn't work: I click and nothing happens (Chrome: Version 115.0.5790.170 (Official Build) (x86_64))
It is currently not working in my Chromium browser. Just get the spinning loading circle. It was decent when it did work correctly.
The extension is not working.
Nice option to add tasks quickly. Would be great if we can tag multiple projects at the same time.
Easy way to add current webpages as tasks to Asana. I almost didn't install this based on all the comments saying it doesn't work, launches a new window, and doesn't add the URL. Not true. Maybe they are missing it, but there's a link icon in the popup. Just click it, and it adds the URL. I get that it's not automatic - but I guess it gives you the option to either add the URL or not.
Opens a new window (instead of using the existing window) to add a task. Also, it doesn't automatically copy the website; you have to copy and paste it in.
Really, Asana. Shame on you!!!
it doesn't work. it's just a blank white window and it says "Cannot connect to Asana. Be sure you're logged in and connected." No buttons or options to fix it tho. I even went into the Asana desktop app and looked around for integrations, etc. couldn't find anything. I think this extension is broken.
