Keep small follow-ups attached to the work they support
Put the next check or subtask directly on its Basecamp card.
Trigger

Action
Create Step in Card
Tool to create a step within a card in a Basecamp card table. Use when you need to add a subtask or checklist item to an existing card with optional due date and assignees.
Why this helps
Small follow-ups mentioned in chat often lose their connection to the main project item.
- Keep a follow-up beside its parent work
- Preserve details from the original message
- Reduce memory load for small next steps
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect 2chat and Basecamp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create a new automation through Automations or by telling Notis from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, describe how to identify follow-ups and match them to an existing Basecamp card before adding a step.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real follow-up that clearly identifies its card, then review the step.
Questions about this workflow
What if a message does not identify an existing card?
Instruct Notis to skip the update or report that it needs a card reference when it cannot confidently identify the parent card.
Can a step include an assignee or due date?
The listed action supports optional assignees and due dates. Include them when the message provides enough information.
