Align a Beaconstac tag name with an Asana tag

Keep campaign labels consistent between Asana planning and Beaconstac organization with a tag name update.

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

Update Tag

Tool to update an existing tag by its id. use when you need to modify a tag's name or color after confirming its id via list tags.

Why this helps

Different label names across planning and QR organization make campaigns harder to find.

  • Reduce label drift across planning and QR organization.
  • Use the Asana tag event as a timely naming cue.
  • Update a known tag without creating duplicates.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana and Beaconstac once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to rename the identified Beaconstac tag to match the added Asana tag name.
  • 4Pick the Asana Tag Added to Task trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real task and provide the Beaconstac tag ID to update.

Questions about this workflow

Can this create a Beaconstac tag if none exists?

No. This uses the Beaconstac Update Tag action, so provide the ID of an existing tag.

How does the Asana trigger provide the tag?

For this event, the Asana parent value contains the tag GID; Notis can use the event details to identify the tag name.
