Create Asana/Jira Tasks

Chris Downes

Be able to create a task in Sunsama, then assign it to an Asana or Jira project/column from Sunsama

My use case for this would be:
I like to use Sunsama for my day planning at work, I love how quick and easy it is to add stuff without getting distracted by browsers.
But my employer would like me to track tasks in Asana too.
It'd be great if I could have Sunsama create any tasks I make in Sunsama as Asana tasks - then import them as an Sunsama/Asana linked magic.

Create Tasks in Asana from Sunsama

Right now, you can only read from Asana, which limits the workflow from creating tasks in Asana => pull from Asana in Sunsama. However, it would make much more sense to create tasks in Sunsama and have an option to manually/automatically also create this task in Asana. I guess this can also be understood as a two-way sync instead of the current one-way sync.

Thanks for the consideration.

Would reduce a lot of work and make sunsama more productive!

Create task natively in Asana

I love the simpliicity of creating tasks in Sunsama but would love to have it defualt to creating the task in Asana vs Sunsama.

The team feels like their efforts are duplicatve since we track all tasks in Asana.

Just wanna re-emphasize how great this would be for me!
In Cal Newport's Capture - Configure - Control model, presently Sunsama is only really
 good at Control. It could be great at Capture too, in which case it could seamlessly manage the day to day input and output of time management. You can go to jira, notion or one of the other integrations to structure and plan your work / goals in greater depth & on longer timescales.
At the moment, however, if you are using any of these integrations, information capture in Sunsama always has to be manually transferred over. Hence it is easiest to use another tool for capture, rather than get stuck with that regular manual task.
I wanna urge the Sunsama team -- Sunsama's niche is control and capture
! (AFAICT)

This would be a great feature for tasks created on Sunsama initially.
EDIT: Adding my use case here: I've started using the Slack integration to add tasks to Sunsama that I want to get to later and avoid forgetting. This is great but sometimes (after digging into the task) I need to share that task with our Asana team or assign it to someone there and it would be useful to just use Sunsama to create the task on Asana.
Currently what I'd have to do is go back to Slack and assign the task from there to Asana using the Slack-Asana integration. It would be more useful if I could just do that in one step from Sunsama.
Note that at this point I do not need the Sunsama-Asana task synced - just adding on Asana would do. I do see that there is a 2-way sync on the list of improvements here so that would be nice but not essential.
Also another related issue is adding tasks to Asana from Outlook email via Sunsama. I have the pretty much the same issue outlined above from Slack but with tasks added from Outlook so, again, it would be nice to use Sunsama to create an Asana task from an email I had pulled from the Sunsama Outlook integration (I use the gmail integration too but very little and only for personal emails).
Thanks!
