When Asana and CompanyCam operate independently, project managers often find themselves manually transferring task-related images from CompanyCam to Asana. For instance, a construction team may capture site photos in CompanyCam, but without integration, these images must be manually uploaded to the corresponding Asana tasks. This results in lost time and potential misalignment, as team members may forget to attach critical images, leading to incomplete project documentation and communication breakdowns.

Top Ways to Automate Asana & CompanyCam

Automated Task Creation: Instantly create Asana tasks from new photos uploaded in CompanyCam, ensuring that every documentation effort translates into actionable steps for your team.
Real-Time Status Updates: Automatically sync updates between Asana and CompanyCam, so team members are always informed about project progress and can access the latest documentation without switching platforms.
Centralized Reporting: Generate comprehensive reports that combine task completion data from Asana with photo documentation from CompanyCam, providing stakeholders with a holistic view of project performance and accountability.

How to Build the Asana → CompanyCam Sync

In Asana, create a webhook that listens to task updates. Use the endpoint: POST /webhooks to set up the webhook for specific projects.
Configure the webhook to trigger on the event task.updated to capture changes in task details.
In the webhook payload, extract the id of the updated task and any associated image URLs from the task's custom fields.
Set up a server to receive the webhook payload from Asana. Upon receiving the data, parse the JSON to retrieve the task ID and image URLs.
For each image URL, make a REST API call to CompanyCam using the endpoint: POST /projects/{project_id}/photos. Include the task ID in the body to link the photo to the correct Asana task.
Ensure to handle the response from CompanyCam to confirm the photo upload and log any errors for troubleshooting.

Developer Warnings & API Gotchas

Ensure that the custom field in Asana for image URLs is correctly formatted; otherwise, the extraction may fail, leading to missing data in CompanyCam.
When posting to CompanyCam, verify that the project ID matches the project associated with the Asana task; mismatched IDs can result in photos being uploaded to the wrong project.
Be cautious of the payload size when sending large images; if the image exceeds CompanyCam's size limit, the API will reject the request, causing data loss.
