Trigger
Task Updated
Triggers when a task is updated in a project.
Action
Update QR Code
Tool to update an existing qr code by its id. use when you need to modify qr code attributes; only provided fields are changed.
Why this helps
QR code changes can be missed when campaign instructions change after the code is already in use.
- Keep existing QR code details aligned with current campaign instructions.
- Reduce manual checking between task updates and Beaconstac.
- Preserve a task-based record of the requested change.

- 1Connect Asana and Beaconstac once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to update only the identified QR code fields that changed in the task.
- 4Pick the Asana Task Updated trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real task that identifies an existing QR code and a supported change.
