Export your data from Asana
To get started, you will first need to export your data from Asana in the form of a CSV. Follow the steps below to complete this:
ℹ️ Note that you can only export one project at a time, each as a separate CSV file. If you need to import larger amounts of data, please contact Coda Support for assistance.
Within Asana, select the project you wish to export
At the top of the project page, select the chevron icon to the right of the project name
From the list of options, hover over Sync/Export, then select Project tasks as CSV
In the pop-up window, we suggest selecting All custom fields including multi-homed tasks
Then select Export CSV to confirm
Repeat the above process with any other projects you wish to export
Now that you’ve downloaded the necessary CSV files from Asana, the next step is to import these files into Coda. Continue to the next section to learn how.
Import files into Coda

Click Next to continue
Click into the File field, and select the recently downloaded CSV from your files

FAQs
Can I export and import an entire Asana workspace at once?
Can I export and import an entire Asana workspace at once?
At this time, you can only export one project at a time from Asana. Therefore, you will need to export each Asana project individually. You can then upload multiple CSV files at once via the importer in Coda.
If it is not feasible to export each project individually due to the quantity of data in Asana, our team may be able to help. Please contact Coda Support to learn more.
