How it connects

Asana has an official connector in Claude's directory. A Claude admin switches it on and each person signs in with their own Asana login, so Claude only sees what they're allowed to see. Helm handles the setup, checks the permissions and trains your team on what to ask.

Looking after your Asana data

Asana holds internal project plans and staff details, so Claude only sees the projects and teams each user already has permission to see, and Helm keeps it to the workspaces your team uses.

Only the access you approve.
Everything stays in your own accounts.
On Claude's business plans, your data isn't used to train AI models.
