Turn a large task into a small set of next steps
Send a prepared plan and parent task reference to Notis to create a more manageable task breakdown.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create subtask
Creates a new asana subtask under an existing parent task (`task gid`); `due on` and `due at` are mutually exclusive and cannot be set simultaneously.
Why this helps
A broad task can stay stuck when its first few steps are not visible.
- Make the next steps visible beneath the parent task.
- Keep the breakdown connected to the original work.
- Spend less time manually creating subtasks.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect 0CodeKit and Asana once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for task breakdown.
- 3Tell Notis to use the supplied parent task reference and create a subtask for each distinct step in the supplied plan.
- 4Select the webhook trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real parent task and a short plan.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis create subtasks without a parent task reference?
No. The request needs to identify the parent task for the subtasks.
Will it invent missing steps?
Tell Notis whether to use only the supplied plan or propose a breakdown. Any project-specific requirements must be included in the request.
