Use this interactive demo to learn how to combine duplicate tasks into one in Asana.

Quick summary

The Merge Tasks feature in Asana lets you consolidate duplicate or related tasks into a single task without losing any existing information. This step-by-step walkthrough shows exactly how to use the ellipsis menu to trigger a merge and select the target task.


Steps

  1. Go to Projects and select your desired project.
  2. Select the task you want to merge and open it.
  3. Click the ellipsis icon to open the task settings menu.
  4. Click Merge from the dropdown menu.
  5. Select the other task you would like to merge your current task into.
  6. Once the merge is completed, the word 'Duplicate' will appear beside the merged task to confirm the action.
  7. You have now merged two tasks into one while retaining all relevant information.

📌 Why this matters

Merging tasks in Asana eliminates duplicate work items and keeps your project board clean and accurate. When two tasks cover the same work, the Merge feature consolidates them into a single task without losing comments, attachments, or assignee details. This helps project managers and team members maintain a single source of truth, reduce confusion, and improve overall workflow efficiency. For teams managing high-volume projects, the ability to quickly merge duplicate tasks directly from the task menu saves significant time and prevents miscommunication.
