Step 1: Pin the playbook and integrate Asana, Gmail and Google Drive

First, click the “Pin it” button at the top of this page to save this automation. You will be redirected to install the browser extension when you run it for the first time. Bardeen will also prompt you to integrate Asana and Dropbox.

Click on “Save Input” and checkmark Asana, Gmail and Dropbox. This will save you time in the future, when you run the automation again.

 You can edit Inputs later by hovering over the playbook. 

Step 2: Run the playbook to save emails to Asana, including attachments stored on Dropbox

Press Option + B on Mac or Alt + B on a Window machine on your keyboard to launch Bardeen.
