Revisit goal urgency as Asana work changes stage

A task moving to a new section often signals a shift in priorities. Put Beeminder urgency and timezone details in the run report to support a more informed review.

Trigger

Task Moved to Section

Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.

Action

Get Beeminder User Information

Tool to retrieve information about a specified beeminder user. use when you need to fetch details like timezone, goals, urgency, or deleted goals after authenticating successfully.

Why this helps

When work changes stage, it is easy to reprioritize without remembering which tracked goals are urgent or when their deadlines fall.

  • Bring available urgency and timezone details into a reprioritization moment.
  • Review work stage changes with existing commitments in view.
  • Reduce the effort of opening a second app to check goal context.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana and Beeminder once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for section-change reviews.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve Beeminder user information when an Asana task moves sections and include available urgency and timezone details in the run report.
  • 4Choose the Asana Task Moved to Section trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real section move and check that the report provides useful context.

Questions about this workflow

Does this change a Beeminder goal or its urgency?

No. The action retrieves user information. It does not alter goals or urgency.

Does the workflow know the meaning of each Asana section?

Not automatically. Include section meaning in your instruction if you want Notis to interpret a particular stage, and provide any context that is not present in the event.
