Jira Asana Integration Integration

Exalate enables users to sync fields from Jira work (tasks, sprints, epics, etc), including summary, description, status, priority, urgency, attachments, notes, custom fields, custom keys, and more.

For Asana, you can sync default and custom fields, plus any other field available via REST APIs. If you don’t see the fields or entities that you need to sync, book a call with our engineers to discuss your use case.

Jira to Asana integration simplifies workflows by linking development and project management teams. It guarantees real-time updates across both platforms, enhances cross-team collaboration, and eliminates manual work by automating task and work item syncing. You can also count on this integration to accelerate project delivery and maintain alignment between business and engineering teams.

To configure a Jira-Asana integration, follow these steps:

• Install Exalate on both Jira and Asana.
• Establish a Script Mode connection, enabling administrators to fully customize the sync.
• Use AI-assisted integration to transform your prompts into actual scripts.
• Configure triggers to manage how the sync operates without manual intervention.
• Let the sync run!

Yes, you can use Exalate to map multiple related Freshservice tickets to a single Jira work item. This will be particularly helpful when customers submit multiple tickets for the same incident or bug. So instead of having multiple Jira work items addressing the same incident, you can avoid duplication and consolidate everything in one place.

Yes, Exalate handles both one-way and two-way syncs in real time. You can set up either one-way or two-way synchronization, depending on your requirements, offering flexibility in how data moves between Jira and Asana. You can also configure multi-directional syncs and migration workflows.

Yes, Exalate can connect multiple Asana tasks with a single Jira work item. This is the ideal setup for linking cross-functional teams or coordinating work across different departments. The dedicated teams for each platform control data flow and sync in their environment while retaining complete authority over mappings, conditions, and data privacy.

Exalate safeguards the data moving through your Jira to Asana integration using security features such as JWT access tokens, role-based access controls, HTTP (HTTPS), TLS 1.2 and 1.3, and multi-factor authentication. It is also ISO27001:2022 certified. You can learn more about it in the Trust Center.

Yes, Exalate supports real-time bidirectional syncing between Jira and Asana. When you update a work item status, priority, or add a comment in Jira, those changes instantly appear in the linked Asana task and vice versa. You can also configure one-way syncing if you only need data flowing in a single direction.

Both. You can use Bulk Connect to link existing work items and tasks that were created before the integration. This is useful when you’re connecting ongoing projects or want to establish relationships between legacy items. New work items and tasks will sync automatically based on your trigger conditions.

Exalate uses customizable conflict resolution rules that you define in your sync scripts. You can configure last-update-wins, prioritize one platform over the other, or create custom logic based on specific field values or user roles. The Groovy scripting engine gives you complete control over how conflicts are handled.

Yes, you can set up trigger conditions using Jira JQL queries and Asana search syntax to control exactly which items sync. For example, you might only sync work items with specific labels, from certain projects, assigned to particular teams, or with priority levels above a threshold. This keeps your sync focused on relevant data.

Exalate provides pre-built field mappings for common scenarios that work out of the box. For advanced customizations, you can use the AI-assisted scripting to describe what you want in plain language and it generates the Groovy code for you. If you prefer, you can even manipulate or write custom scripts from scratch if you have prior Groovy knowledge. 

Yes, Exalate supports multi-project syncing. You can configure separate connections for different project pairs or create a single connection that routes work items to different Asana projects based on custom rules. This flexibility works well for organizations managing multiple client accounts, product lines, or team structures.
