Keep the VP workbook current without copy-paste

Tuesday morning the VP opens the master workbook expecting fresh numbers. The burndown chart shows last week's data because someone is still copy-pasting Asana exports. Unito keeps Asana tasks tied to Excel rows so the chart updates on its own.

Sync Asana tasks to Excel rows both ways

Asana tasks land in the rows the formulas reference. Status, assignee, due date, and custom fields flow both ways without overwriting columns the VP added on the side.

Protect formulas, charts, and conditional formats

Custom fields map to specific Excel columns. Conditional formatting, pivot tables, and charts keep working because Unito only writes mapped cells. Others stay untouched.

Filter out the noise the VP does not need

Per-flow filters keep internal Asana comments, blocked-task chatter, and parked work out of the executive workbook. Status changes flow up; team noise stays where it belongs.

Frequently asked questions about Asana and Microsoft Excel

Does Asana have a native two-way Microsoft Excel sync?

Asana exports to CSV and Excel can refresh from CSV or Power Query. Neither writes back to Asana. Two-way sync that updates Excel rows in place requires a third-party tool.

Does the sync work with Excel desktop, web, or both?

Unito syncs to Excel for the web (Microsoft 365 / OneDrive / SharePoint). The desktop app reads the same workbook so changes appear there once the file refreshes.

Can Asana custom fields map to specific Excel columns?

Yes. Custom fields map to specific Excel columns with direction control per field. Excel-side changes flow back to Asana for the columns marked as bidirectional.

Can one Excel workbook track multiple Asana projects?

Yes. Workbook tabs are mapped per flow. A single workbook can pull from several Asana projects, with each tab holding the data the team or executive needs.
