Real-time data sync with full control, no coding required

Custom sync rules

Use intuitive rules (conditions or filters) to determine exactly what data to sync, such as Asana project, task assignee, GitLab project, label, milestone, epic, and more.

Deep field configurability

Configure your data flow at the field level. Map any native or custom fields — including Asana custom fields and GitLab Issue labels, milestones, weights, and assignees — and define flow direction with item matching to prevent duplicates.

Full relationship support

Sync hierarchies and lookup fields across tools, keeping linked Asana tasks and sub-tasks tied to GitLab Issues, epics, and milestones across both platforms.

Historical data sync

Sync historical records from any point in time, across even the largest datasets. Unito is purpose-built for enterprise-scale alignment across all your tools.

Comment & attachment support

Sync comments and attachments between Asana tasks and GitLab Issues so cross-functional release teams always have full context, wherever they work.

Live data transformation

Transform data in real time with transformers to combine fields, convert HTML to text, extract values, or apply custom string logic through JSON settings.

Enterprise-grade sync without the enterprise-grade complexity

Most enterprise iPaaS platforms require certified architects to bridge Asana and GitLab. Unito delivers the same enterprise-grade reliability with a UI any operator can drive.

Abstracted complexity

Connect Asana and GitLab with an intuitive, out-of-the-box solution that allows for full configurability of your integration. No custom logic, scripting, or engineering-led setup required.
Abstracted complexity

Lower total cost of ownership

Most iPaaS tools drive up cost with long rollouts and heavy upkeep. Unito lowers TCO with fast time to value, and no specialized headcount to maintain or scale integrations.

Escalate Asana product work into GitLab engineering

Product teams scope roadmap work, bugs, and feature requests in Asana. Engineering picks it up as GitLab Issues with the right project, milestone, and labels. Unito creates the GitLab Issue from the Asana task automatically and keeps both sides in sync as the code ships.

Turn Asana tasks into GitLab Issues automatically

An Asana task scoped for engineering creates a matching GitLab Issue. Labels, assignee, and milestone sync both ways. When the Issue closes, the Asana task updates automatically.

Pair Asana projects with GitLab projects and milestones

Asana projects sync to GitLab projects; tasks become Issues with matching labels, assignees, and milestone tags. When a milestone date shifts, the Asana date updates with it.

Give product managers visibility without GitLab access

Status, assignee, milestone, and weight flow back into Asana. PMs, marketing, and ops see what's shipped and what's coming from the Asana board without opening GitLab.

Frequently asked questions about Asana and GitLab

Can pipeline or build status from GitLab CI/CD show up in Asana?

Yes. Pipeline status (passed, failed, running) can flow into a custom field on the linked Asana task. Use it to gate launch sub-tasks until builds are green.

How does Unito handle GitLab milestones across projects and groups?

Group-level and project-level milestones both sync. Map them to Asana sections, custom fields, or due dates per flow. Use rules to route Issues by milestone.

Does Unito support GitLab self-managed instances or only GitLab.com?

Both. Unito supports GitLab.com and GitLab self-managed (on-prem) instances. Authentication is per instance and the connector handles both API surfaces.
