Start implementation with a branch from an Asana update
Create a clean branch when a task reaches the point where coding should begin.
Trigger
Task Updated
Triggers when a task is updated in a project.
Action
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.
Why this helps
The gap between a task becoming actionable and an engineer creating its branch adds friction to starting work.
- Make task changes a prompt to start implementation.
- Use a consistent branch naming instruction.
- Reduce repetitive setup before coding begins.
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.
- 3Ask Notis to create a uniquely named Bitbucket branch when an update meets your stated condition, and identify the repository and target commit from available context.
- 4Pick the Asana Task Updated trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real task update and confirm the commit and branch name are valid.
Questions about this workflow
What does branch creation require?
The repository, a target commit hash, and a unique branch name that follows Bitbucket naming conventions. Do not include the refs/heads/ prefix.
Can it respond to every task update?
The trigger is Task Updated. Describe the meaningful condition in your instruction so Notis can act on relevant updates.

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.
