[MlMt] Asana Integration Bundle

[Chris Jones]

Thanks Max! I guess I should have spent some more time looking at bundles/commands ;)

Hey Benny,

Any chance I can work with you off list to build a bundle for Asana? Our company has fully invested in using Asana for project/task management and I would hate to lose my ability to link emails to tasks.

Also, as an interim bandaid, is there a way to quickly copy the message:// link for a given email so I can insert this into an Asana task?

Cheers,
-Chris

I'm not sure if I'm reaching for the stars here but would it be possible to build a bundle to integrate MailMate with Asana?

A quick look on the API reveals that `curl` can be used to create a task:

curl -u <api_key>: https://app.asana.com/api/1.0/tasks \
-d "assignee=1235" \
-d "followers[0]=5678" \
-d "name=Hello, world%21" \
-d "notes=How are you today%3F" \
-d "projects=14641" \
-d "workspace=14916"

Since Asana is a webapp would it be possible to open the email in MailMate from Asana?

That's not a problem. MailMate can generate `message:` URLs and they are opened by MailMate if MailMate is the default email client (it also works for Apple Mail).

Asana is becoming quite popular amongst teams so it would probably add value to MailMate's bundle offering.

I don't currently have the time to create new bundles. I imagine it would be easiest to use the Todoist bundle as a starting point for creating an Asana bundle since it also requires the use of an API key (named a token in Todoist I think), but it seems that for Asana this is not the only variable needed (projects, assignee?, workspace?).

Well, it's probably faster for me to create a bundle than it is to explain how it's done. You can contact me off list if you would like to help that happen. Primarily, I need you to play with the `curl` commands needed to do what you want with Asana.
