Move new engineering tasks from Asana into Bitbucket
Give each new engineering task a Bitbucket issue, without manually recreating it.
Trigger
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a project.
Action
Create an issue
Creates a new issue in a bitbucket repository, setting the authenticated user as reporter; ensures assignee (if provided) has repository access, and that any specified milestone, version, or component ids exist.
Why this helps
Engineering work gets split between Asana planning and Bitbucket tracking, so tasks can be forgotten or recreated by hand.
- Keep planned work visible in the repository's issue tracker.
- Reduce duplicate task entry and context switching.
- Use the Asana task details as context for a useful issue.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Bitbucket once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a Bitbucket issue from each new task in the relevant Asana project.
- 4Pick the Asana New Task Created trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real task and review the created issue.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Asana to Bitbucket. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Asana triggers
Bitbucket actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Create a branch
Creates a new branch in a bitbucket repository from a target commit hash; the branch name must be unique, adhere to bitbucket's naming conventions, and not include the 'refs/heads/' prefix.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create an issue
Creates a new issue in a bitbucket repository, setting the authenticated user as reporter; ensures assignee (if provided) has repository access, and that any specified milestone, version, or component ids exist.
Attachment Added to Task
Triggers when an attachment is added to a task.
Create an issue comment
Adds a new comment with markdown support to an existing bitbucket issue.
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Create a pull request
Creates a new pull request in a specified bitbucket repository, ensuring the source branch exists and is distinct from the (optional) destination branch.
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a project.
Create repository
Creates a new bitbucket 'git' repository in a specified workspace, defaulting to the workspace's oldest project if `project key` is not provided.
Task Moved to Section
Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.
Create snippet comment
Posts a new top-level comment or a threaded reply to an existing comment on a specified bitbucket snippet.
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.
Delete issue
Permanently deletes a specific issue, identified by its `issue id`, from the repository specified by `repo slug` within the given `workspace`.
Task Updated
Triggers when a task is updated in a project.
Delete repository
Permanently deletes a specified bitbucket repository; this action is irreversible and does not affect forks.
