Retrieve Bonsai space metadata from updated Asana work

Check a known Bonsai space's metadata when an Asana task update calls for that review.

Trigger

Task Updated

Triggers when a task is updated in a project.

Action

Retrieve Space Details

Tool to retrieve details for a single space by its path. use when you need metadata for a space before provisioning a cluster. use after confirming this detail exists. e.g., 'omc/bonsai/us-east-1/common'.

Why this helps

A task update can leave you reopening Bonsai just to confirm details for a space that was already identified.

  • Retrieve metadata for a specific, already identified space.
  • Keep the lookup result with the Asana update report.
  • Avoid repeating a manual space lookup.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana and Bonsai once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Notis Automations, New Automation, and name it for space verification.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve details for the Bonsai space path explicitly supplied in the task or automation instructions when an update calls for verification.
  • 4Pick the Asana Task Updated trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real task and a valid space path that exists.

Questions about this workflow

What format should the space path use?

Provide the full path, such as omc/bonsai/us-east-1/common, and confirm that the space exists before using the lookup.

Can this find a space if I do not know its path?

No. This action retrieves details for a single space by path. Use a space-list action to see available spaces first.
