Do you support Asana formula field?

What if I archive a task?

Archived tasks are treated differently depending on whether they are completed or not. Completed tasks are still considered completed even if they are archived. Tasks that are archived before they were completed are considered removed. Archiving a task doesn't affect its metrics collected before it was archived.

My charts are missing data

Below are some typical reasons for charts not displaying the data you expect:

  • Your data hasn't loaded yet. When the data sync process is in progress, a spinner icon is displayed at the top right of the UI. When you hover the mouse over the icon, you can see the progress.

  • The chart shows data based on a different field than what you think. Learn more about selecting items for a chart.

  • Your workflow mapping is not done correctly. You can learn more about workflow mapping from this guide. Notice that the cards that are in lists mapped to Excluded won't be imported to Screenful.

  • Your board is not connected. If a data source is not connected, you'll see a red notification on the top right of the UI. Click the notification icon to re-authorize the data source.

I have created an automation to move completed tasks from one Asana board to another. Will that mess up my stats?

If a task is moved from Project A to Project B, you will lose the task history from Project A since the Asana API won't return it anymore. Instead of moving to another project, you can create a dedicated "Archived" section at the bottom of your project (that is folded by default), and set up an automation to move completed tasks to that section instead of another project. That way, you won't lose any history.

Why can’t I see all the projects in my Asana account?

When you are importing projects, you are shown all the projects of the teams in which you are a member. In order to see more projects, add yourself to the respective teams.

Why don't I see all my portfolios?

You may not see all the portfolios due to a restriction in the Asana API. Portfolios are shown only if the user who did the authorization is the owner of the portfolios.

I added a new custom field but it is not showing

When you add a new custom field to your board, it is imported during the next data sync (the data is synced automatically once per hour). You can trigger sync manually anytime by selecting Data sync options from the main menu. Notice that the new field should also have a value assigned in at least one task.
