How this automation works

Create Asana tasks to capture changes made in Figma files. This Applet runs whenever a Figma file is updated and automatically creates a new task in the Asana project you specify. It's ideal for design teams who want edits in Figma to generate follow-up work in Asana during reviews, handoffs, or iterative design.
