Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create task in asana with specific details

Why this helps
Good ideas get collected, then disappear into a channel with no clear next action.
- Convert a selected research item into a task without retyping its context.
- Keep the source link and why it matters together.
- Make follow-up easier to find in your project backlog.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Are.na and Asana once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to turn each received Are.na item into an Asana task, preserving its link and any supplied note.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real Are.na reference sent to the webhook.
