Zendesk Ticket and Asana Task Automated Synchronization Workflow
This workflow implements automatic synchronization between Zendesk tickets and Asana tasks, ensuring that when customer service receives a new ticket, it can automatically check whether the corresponding task has been created in Asana. If the task already exists, a comment is added to the task; if it does not exist, a new task is automatically created, and the task ID is written back to the ticket. This process significantly enhances collaboration efficiency between customer service and project management, eliminates information silos, reduces the workload of manual operations, ensures real-time information updates, and facilitates smooth internal communication within the organization.

Zendesk Ticket and Asana Task Automated Synchronization Workflow
Key Features and Highlights
This workflow enables automatic linking and synchronization between Zendesk tickets and Asana tasks. When a new ticket is received in Zendesk, the workflow automatically checks whether a corresponding task has already been created in Asana. If such a task exists, it adds the latest comment from the Zendesk ticket to the Asana task. If not, it creates a new Asana task and writes the task ID back into a custom field in the Zendesk ticket. The entire process is highly automated, significantly enhancing collaboration efficiency between customer support and project management teams.
Core Problems Addressed
- Eliminates information silos between Zendesk customer support tickets and Asana task management, preventing duplicate task creation.
- Synchronizes ticket updates in real time to ensure relevant project members receive the latest requirements and feedback promptly.
- Reduces manual effort in converting tickets to tasks, minimizing communication errors and information delays.
Use Cases
- Customer support teams receiving client feedback and issue requests via Zendesk, while project teams track progress in Asana.
- Organizations needing automatic conversion of support tickets into project tasks for unified management and assignment.
- Companies aiming to seamlessly integrate customer support systems with project management tools to improve internal collaboration efficiency.
Main Workflow Steps
- Use a webhook to listen for new ticket creation events in Zendesk.
- Retrieve detailed ticket information via the Zendesk node.
- Use a custom function node to check whether a corresponding Asana task already exists (based on the Asana task ID stored in the Zendesk ticket’s custom field “Jira Issue Key”).
- Based on the check result:
- If a corresponding task exists, add a new comment to the Asana task containing the latest Zendesk ticket comment.
- If no corresponding task exists, create a new task in Asana and write the new task ID back into the Zendesk ticket’s custom field.
- Update the Zendesk ticket to ensure complete synchronization of information between both systems.
