Configure provisioning for Asana with Zoho Directory
User provisioning in Asana enables you to provision and deprovision
users in Asana from the Zoho Directory Admin Panel, enabling you to use
Zoho Directory as a single source of truth. To get the most out of this
integration, you can also set up single sign-on. SSO allows your
organization's users to easily access Asana without having to sign in to
it separately.
