Revisit aging Asana tasks with a clear decision

Give older work a quick decision before it keeps occupying attention.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Get multiple tasks

Retrieves a list of tasks, allowing filtering by assignee (requires `workspace`), project, section, `completed since`, and `modified since`; `workspace` also requires `assignee`.

Why this helps

Old tasks can accumulate without anyone deciding whether they are still relevant.

  • Prompt a decision on older open work.
  • Make it easier to close or restart outdated tasks.
  • Reduce lingering items in a project backlog.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to find incomplete tasks older than a period you specify and create a review task listing them.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with a real project and confirm the age criteria match your needs.

Questions about this workflow

How can I define an aging task?

Describe an age threshold and project scope in your instruction.

Does this complete or delete old tasks?
