Why this helps
Remembering what a saved view represents can be hard when you are switching contexts or have not used it recently.
- Retrieve metadata for one saved view when needed.
- Put the answer in your regular automation report channel.
- Avoid searching for view details manually.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinity once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and name it for saved view metadata requests.
- 3Tell Notis to identify the requested saved view and summarize its metadata.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one request for a saved view you can verify.
Questions about this workflow
Does this retrieve rows from the view?
No. This action returns metadata on one saved view. Retrieving rows uses a different action with additional restrictions.
Can it search every view without an identifier?
This action is for a single saved view, so the request should provide enough context to identify it.

Get all opportunities
Pagination through opportunities in affinity yields basic info but excludes field data. for field data, use specified get endpoints. "export data from lists" permission needed.
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.
