Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Beamer once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to count Beamer posts matching the available criteria relevant to the task and report the count with the criteria used.
- 4Pick Asana's Task Moved to Section trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real task moved into the section.
Questions about this workflow
Can it count only posts matching a specific product or date range?
Ask Notis to use criteria that Beamer supports for the count. If the needed criteria are unavailable, the report should say so rather than imply a filtered count.
Does the workflow change the Asana task or Beamer posts?
No. It retrieves a count and reports it; the listed Beamer action does not edit either app.
