Keep derivation context with the Asana task

When an item needs derivation review, add the available context to the task the team is already tracking.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create task comment

Adds a new text comment (story) to an existing asana task, appearing in its activity feed.

Why this helps

Derivation details can get separated from the task where the team discusses next steps.

  • Keep item processing context in the task activity feed.
  • Start the update from an HTTP request.
  • Avoid retyping available derivation details.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Archive.org and Asana once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation named Derivation review note.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve available derivation context for the item in the webhook request and comment on the specified Asana task with a concise summary.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real item and task identifier and check the comment for accuracy.

Questions about this workflow

What identifiers should the webhook provide?

Provide the Archive.org item identifier and the Asana task identifier so Notis knows which item to inspect and where to comment.

Will this create a new task?

No. It adds a comment to the specified existing Asana task.
