This is not an official Asana project.

Alexa Skill that lets you easily add tasks to Asana. You can optionally add a task to a project.

Example phrases:

• Alexa, tell Asana to add buy milk
• Alexa, tell Asana to add bacon to market

Checkout the SampleUtterances.txt file for more examples.

Right now you have to hard-code your Asana access token. While Alexa does support the OAuth 2.0 implicit grant, there's two issues:

• Asana requires the redirect URI, but Amazon doesn't included it when creating the authorization URL
• Asana access tokens are limited to twelve hours, so you'll need to re-authorize the application often

You can workaround the first issue by manually specifying the redirect_uri parameter in the Alexa Skill authorization URL setting.

Ideally you could tell Alexa which workspace you want to use as the default. That would need to be stored somewhere and I didn't want to implement that since we're already hard-coding settings due to the authorization limitation.

You can specify the default workspace be setting the ASANA_DEFAULT_WORKSPACE_ID in sample.env. Finding your workspace identifiers is an exercises left to the reader.

Everything you need can be found in the speech-assets directory. When setting up the custom slots, the file name should be the name of the custom slot.

This project assumes you'll be deploying to Amazon Lambda. Copy sample.env to .env and fill in the values. Then install the packages:

npm install

To test the event defined in event.json, invoke:

grunt lambda_invoke

To create a package in dist:

grunt lambda_package

To deploy:

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=KEY
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=SECRET
grunt lambda_deploy
