Turn a new Asana task into a product shortlist

Capture a buying need in Asana, then let Notis search Best Buy for products that fit the request.

Trigger

New Task Created

Triggers when a new task is created in a project.

Action

Get Products

Tool to retrieve products from best buy. use when you need to fetch product listings with optional filters and sorting. example: 'get products for category abcat0101000 sorted by saleprice.dsc.'

Why this helps

Shopping research gets lost between a task list and a separate product search, leaving decisions stalled.

  • Start product research from the task where the need was captured.
  • Get a concise summary of available options without switching into catalog browsing.
  • Keep the buying decision connected to the original task context.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana and Best Buy once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3Describe the product need in the task and ask Notis to find relevant Best Buy options.
  • 4Pick the Asana New Task Created trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real task that includes a clear product request.

Questions about this workflow

What should the task say?

Include the product type and any requirements that matter, such as budget, size, or intended use. Notis can only use information available in the task and product results.

Does this place an order?

No. This workflow retrieves product listings to support research. It does not purchase items.
