Keep document categories available as Asana tags

Make a new classification easy to recognize when your team organizes work.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create a tag in a workspace

Creates a new tag, with properties like name and color defined in the request body, within a specific asana workspace (using `workspace gid`); this tag helps categorize tasks, is confined to the workspace, and is not automatically applied to tasks.

Why this helps

A new document category can be difficult to use consistently if the team has no matching Asana tag.

  • Create a tag for a category when needed.
  • Use classification results to inform tag naming.
  • Make categories available for Asana task organization.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Algodocs and Asana once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create an Asana workspace tag for a document category when your stated criteria are met.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real category and confirm the workspace context is supplied.

Questions about this workflow

Does creating a tag apply it to a task?

No. Asana creates the tag in the workspace, but does not automatically apply it to tasks.

What does the workflow need to create the tag?

The classification name and an Asana workspace gid must be available to Notis.
