Somebody on the team likes building things. They open Make, drag an Asana module onto the canvas, wire it to Google Sheets, and 40 minutes later the scenario runs. New tasks show up as rows. For a week it looks done.
Then a task moves section, a due date slips, and a client asks why the sheet says 23 open tasks when Asana says 17. A Make Asana Google Sheets scenario does exactly what you drew it to do. Keeping a whole project in step is a bigger drawing.
The short verdict. Pick Make when the job has branches: filter here, route there, write to Sheets and 2 other apps in one run. Make shows that logic as a drawing. Pick Asana to Sheets, an Asana to Google Sheets™ add-on, when the job is a tab that mirrors an Asana project. Make's Core plan starts from $9 for 10,000 credits. Asana to Sheets costs a flat $9 to $39 a month and comes with the matching built.

Make scenarios: Asana modules into Sheets rows
Make calls a workflow a scenario. A step is a module, and you lay them out on a canvas like a flowchart.
Make's Asana app has 90 modules. 8 are triggers, such as Watch New Tasks, Watch Completed Tasks, Watch Tasks or Subtasks and Watch Webhook Events. 59 are actions and 23 are searches. On the Google Sheets side there are 27 modules, including Add a Row, Update a Row, Bulk Add Rows and Bulk Update Rows.
The starter build is Watch New Tasks into Add a Row. A task appears in Asana, a row appears at the bottom of the tab. It works for a log of new tasks.
Bulk Add Rows matters most for reporting. It writes many rows in one module run. A scheduled scenario can search a project's tasks, gather them, and write the batch in one go. That's closer to a sync than anything a one-row-per-event tool does.
The matching job is yours
The hard part of a sync is knowing which row belongs to which task. Make leaves that to you.
To update a row when a task changes, the scenario has to find the row first. That means a search module keyed on the Asana task ID, then a router: update if found, add if not. Routers are free in Make's credit model. The search and the write still cost credits.
Then the edge cases arrive. A task in 2 projects can show up twice unless you handle it. Subtasks need their own trigger, and Asana nests them up to 5 levels deep. A new custom field in Asana means a new mapping in the scenario. Make's 8 Asana triggers include no watcher for deleted tasks. The tidy path for deletions is a full rebuild of the tab on a schedule.
Asana to Sheets ships with that work done. The sidebar picks a workspace, a team and a project. A filtered sync narrows by section, assignee, tag, completed or due window. It writes a task in several projects once. Subtasks arrive with their parent's name. Custom fields land in columns: text, number, currency, percentage, single-select, multi-select, date, people, formula and reference.
The trade is control. Make lets you shape every row. Asana to Sheets gives you a fixed layout, and asks you not to delete or rearrange its columns. Resizing and hiding are safe. Reports go on a second tab with QUERY or FILTER.
Make credits and run intervals
Make has billed in credits since 27 August 2025. Most module actions cost 1 credit. Routers and error handlers cost nothing.
The free plan gives 1,000 credits a month, and a scenario can run at most every 15 minutes. Paid plans go down to 1 minute. Core starts from $9 for 10,000 credits, per Make's own comparison page. The plans go by Free, Core, Pro, Teams and Enterprise.
An estimate, to show the shape of the bill. A search, a router and a write cost about 2 credits per task handled, since the router is free. 500 task events a month is about 1,000 credits, the whole free allowance. A scheduled rebuild with Bulk Add Rows is cheaper per task, but every run spends credits whether anything changed or not. Run it every 15 minutes and that's 2,880 runs in a 30-day month.
Asana to Sheets prices the account. Starter is $9 a month ($90 a year) for up to 3 manual syncs. Pro is $19 a month ($190 a year) and adds unlimited syncs, a sync every 3 hours, time entries and users. Business is $39 a month ($390 a year) and adds two-way sync, live sync and reports. The detail is on the pricing page.
Make wins on raw speed for a schedule. A Sheets add-on lives under Google's cap of roughly one scheduled run an hour, and ours runs every 3 hours. Live sync on Business is the faster path. It listens for Asana's own change notices, which reach our server, and the sheet updates in seconds. Manual and scheduled syncs run in your Google account.
Both tools meet Asana's request limit. Asana slows any connection that asks too often, at about 150 requests a minute on free workspaces and 1,500 on paid ones. A scenario that loops over 600 tasks in a minute on a free workspace will hit it. The detail is in Asana rate limits.
