Can I back up Asana with a Service account?

Yes, we can back up your Asana data through a service account. This works a bit different than a normal account: Instead of authorising ProBackup via the regular oAuth connection, you need to provide a Static Token flow instead.

Note: We only support this for our Premium tier.

First, you need to enable Work Access Mode (Enterprise plan required):

  • Navigate to the admin console

  • Click Launch Asana in the left pane

  • Select Work access mode

Secondly, you need to create a new API token and share it with us:

  • Log in to your Service account

  • Click on Create new token

  • Provide a token name (e.g. "ProBackup Backup") and click Continue

  • On the next page, click on copy and done

  • Send us the token via a secured link
