Keep Algodocs filing locations visible as project work begins

New work often means new documents to file. Get the Algodocs folder hierarchy in a run report when a project task is created.

Trigger

New Task Created

Triggers when a new task is created in a project.

Action

List folders

Tool to list folders. Use when you need to retrieve all folder IDs and their hierarchy. Must be called after obtaining an API key.

Why this helps

Finding the right filing location can interrupt a new task before the actual work has started.

  • Review the available folder hierarchy when project work starts.
  • See folder IDs and parent-child structure in the run report.
  • Reduce app switching to look up filing locations.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana and Algodocs once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a new automation in Automations, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3Describe the outcome: when a project task is created, list the Algodocs folders and summarize their hierarchy in the run report.
  • 4Pick the Asana New Task Created trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real project task.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a folder or move documents?

No. The available action retrieves folder IDs and hierarchy only.

Why must Algodocs be connected first?

The List folders action must be called after obtaining an API key, which the Algodocs connection provides.
