Preserve project decisions from Asana comments
Important decisions can disappear in busy task threads. Send new comments to an Appdrag function that keeps a decision record.
Trigger
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Action
Execute Cloud Backend function via POST
Tool to execute a Cloud Backend API function via POST on the default environment. Use when you need to call a function with POST parameters and optional APIKey.
Why this helps
A founder has to reopen multiple task threads to remember why a project decision was made.
- Keep decision context accessible beyond the original comment thread.
- Reduce repeated searching for project history.
- Create a useful trail for later handoffs.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Appdrag once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to send new project comments and their task context to your Appdrag decision log function.
- 4Pick the Asana New Comment on Task trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real comment and confirm the function records the relevant context.
Questions about this workflow
Will this capture every comment in Asana?
The trigger is for a comment added to a task in a project. Choose the project context in your instruction if the automation should focus on a particular scope.
Does this identify decisions automatically?
Notis can analyze the comment text, but your instruction should explain what counts as a decision. You can also choose to log all comments.
