Your Asana account

Asana accounts are free and are tied to individual users. Asana accounts grant access to shared workspaces and organizations to enable collaboration with other Asana users.

With a single Asana account, you can create or join multiple workspaces and organizations to collaborate with various groups of Asana users. The spaces you belong to are their own separate entities, each with their own unique set of people, projects, and tasks.

Since each workspace and organization are their own separate entities, your colleagues cannot see the other spaces you belong to, nor can you see the other spaces your colleagues may belong to. Learn more about privacy between these spaces.

Create an account

We'll ask for your name and email address when you sign up. You can add other email addresses to your account later. Use your work email if you want to belong to your company's Asana organization. If you sign up with your work email and there is an existing organization set up under this corporate domain, you can then request to join the teams within the organization.

You don't need to maintain multiple accounts. You can join, create, or leave any number of organizations or workspaces from a single account.

From the home page

To create an account for yourself, visit https://asana.com and select Get Started.

You can choose to sign up:

• By entering an email address and creating a new password, unique to Asana.
• Using your Google account if you already have a paid Asana subscription.
• With SAML for users on Asana Enterprise and Enterprise+ tiers, as well as legacy tier Legacy Enterprise.

If you choose to sign up with your Google account:

• We'll use the credentials for the Google account you're currently logged in to or we'll ask you to log in to your Google account.
• You won't have a unique Asana password, but you can make one at any time using the forgotten password process.

From an invite

When you receive an invitation:

• Click the link in the invitation email in a browser supported by Asana
• Click the Accept Invite button or copy and paste the link provided.

Uploading a profile photo is optional. You can always do so later from your settings.

Log in

To log in to Asana, visit https://app.asana.com/ or https://asana.com. You may wish to bookmark one of these.

You can log in by either:

1. Clicking the Continue with Google button.
2. Entering your Asana account's email address.

If you currently log into your account via Google and want to switch to a logging in via password, you can request a password reset link.

Logging in with SAML

Available on Asana Enterprise and Enterprise+ tiers, and legacy tier Legacy Enterprise.

If your organization has SAML enabled, a password isn't required to log into your account. Your account will be authenticated with just your email address.

To log into your account with SAML enabled:

• Visit https://asana.com or https://app.asana.com
• Enter the email address associated to your account and leave the password field empty
• Click the Log in button

Alternatively, users in SAML-enabled organizations can also log into their accounts using a custom URL. Just add your company's email domain at the end of the URL, https://app.asana.com/a/ to access your custom login portal.

For example, members of the acme.com organization can log into their accounts from https://app.asana.com/a/acme.com

Members of organizations with SAML requirements must log into their account using their SAML related email address, regardless of how many email addresses they have on their account.

Login detection

Users should get an email to notify them that we have noticed a new login to their account. This is a security feature recognising we detect login activity.

This email will go out to users when they:

• Use a browser + IP address combination for the first time

This applies to logins with username and password, Google SAML-based single sign-on (SSO) authentication.

Log out

To log out of Asana:

1. Click your profile photo
2. Click Log out

When you log out from Asana, you will be logged out from all active sessions including mobile sessions.

Password reset

You create your Asana password when you sign up. If you signed up with your Google account, you do not have an Asana password, but you can make one by using the Forgot your password? link.

If you forgot your password or want to change it, you can reset your password from the login page.

To generate a password reset link:

Click the Forgot your password? link from the login page and follow the prompt in the next page

Click here to reset your password.

Check your email's inbox for a password reset email.

Organization members with multiple email addresses on their account, will receive the password reset link to the email address associated to your organization's domain.
