# Asana MCP tool for ADK

<div class="language-support-tag">
  <span class="lst-supported">Supported in ADK</span><span class="lst-python">Python</span><span class="lst-typescript">TypeScript</span>
</div>

The [Asana MCP Server](https://developers.asana.com/docs/using-asanas-mcp-server)
connects your ADK agent to the [Asana](https://asana.com/) work management
platform. This integration gives your agent the ability to manage projects,
tasks, goals, and team collaboration using natural language.

## Use cases

- **Track Project Status**: Get real-time updates on project progress, view
  status reports, and retrieve information about milestones and deadlines.

- **Manage Tasks**: Create, update, and organize tasks using natural language.
  Let your agent handle task assignments, status changes, and priority updates.

- **Monitor Goals**: Access and update Asana Goals to track team objectives and
  key results across your organization.

## Prerequisites

- An [Asana](https://asana.com/) account with access to a workspace

!!! note

    When you run this agent for the first time, a browser window opens
    automatically to request access via OAuth. Alternatively, you can use the
    authorization URL printed in the console. You must approve this request to
    allow the agent to access your Asana data.

## Available tools

Asana's MCP server includes 30+ tools organized by category. Tools are
automatically discovered when your agent connects. Use the
[ADK Web UI](/runtime/web-interface/) to view available tools in the
trace graph after running your agent.
