Record validation for documents flagged for review
Use a clear triage tag to trigger document review and capture its outcome in Affinda.
Trigger
Tag Added to Task
Triggers when a tag is added to a task. Note: Asana's event structure is inverted for tag events — the resource is the task and the parent is the tag. So parent.gid gives the tag GID.
Action
Create Validation Result
Tool to create a validation result. use when recording validation outcomes for a document after parsing.
Why this helps
Documents flagged for extra attention can be processed without a consistent record of the review result.
- Uses an explicit task tag to focus document validation.
- Records the outcome in Affinda for later inspection.
- Makes the review decision easier to track.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Affinda once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis which task tag to recognize, what document to process, and which supplied criteria determine the validation outcome to record.
- 4Pick Tag Added to Task as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one tagged task and a known document and validation outcome.
Questions about this workflow
Can the tag itself supply the validation criteria?
A tag can signal which workflow applies, but the criteria and desired outcome must be supplied in the automation instruction.
Where is the task's tag identity in the event?
For Asana tag events, parent.gid contains the tag GID and the resource is the task.
