This is an incredibly important feature when using templates for projects under Asanaās current configuration limitations
So, it is quite frustrating to come to these boards and find the community is clamoring for help and updates; but then receives none. Sad.
As it stands, we are scrambling to figure ways to work around limitations on basic elements in Asana. For example, we are trying to create pools of tasks (notes, sub-tasks, custom fields, etc) for templates to assign out on projects based on phases or milestones - because there is no clean way to import tasks due to limitations with CSV import (no sub-tasks, and limited fields) and the inability (still) to add a template to an existing project. So, we can easily have multiple tasks that need to be added at once to the queue when a milestone, phase, etc occurs. The inability to select multiple tasks at once on boards hampers our productivity, and frankly, makes us continue to explore other options. Some of these features are not difficult to implement, and should already be addressed. So, too, should the ability to switch between lists and boards.
Would someone from Asana please respond and provide an update. Your community deserves it.

maybe, an option in advanced search to filter by column (and project). So, we can find all task, and mark them as completed

When will it be done?
Hi all! Iām delighted to announce that you can now multi-select cards in your Board projects to move multiple tasks across columns in one go. Simply hold your āCmd/Ctrlā key and click on cards to select them.
As it stands, multi-selecting doesnāt allow you to take other actions (such as deleting tasks or updating due dates), but weāre getting closer! Thanks for your patience and for supporting this feature request!
Happy Monday!

I see than in Board view some useful functionalities of Asana are not working.
Another one is the MultiSelect of Tasks. You can try the shortcuts and experience how it does not work. ItĀ“s very frustrating when you are only interested in KanBan/Board view.
Hi @JoseJuan! Merging your post with Multi-select in Boards - #28 as they are both very similar. Note that you can now multiselect cards in your Board projects; more details in the post itself

I see we can multi-select. Beyond dragging things around what functionality is available? Can we tag? Adjust dates (See that mentioned as coming)? Etc.? Anything?! This is really needed. Help
Thanks!!!

Just found this post!
Iām setting up a project management system at work and being able to delete, add tags, etc to multiple boards in the board project layout would be VERY useful for me.
I hope this gets updated soon!
Iām a visual person and would much prefer to operate in boards over lists.

I like to create one over-arching LIST project where I share all tasks from every individual project (all my projects are boards). In that main list I can not only look at everything as one list but select tasks and alter them as described in this thread.
The best workaround Iāve found is to use the advanced search then fill in the In Projects field with your project name then click the little arrow next to the name of the project and you can choose a board. You can add the same project multiple times with different boards selected.
Once you hit search you will get all of the tasks from those columns in a list view where you can edit in bulk.

Following up here, since I havenāt seen an update from Asana staff in a few months. Any word on when we might be able to bulk edit tasks while viewing a Board project? Is that something that is still in the pipeline?
