Keep Asana feedback with the Box document
Bring actionable task feedback into the Box file where the work lives.
Trigger
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Action
Create comment
Adds a comment by the user to a specific file, or as a reply to an other comment.
Why this helps
Feedback split between task comments and documents is easy to miss during edits.
- Keep relevant feedback near the document being edited.
- Reduce repeated searches across task and file discussions.
- Make requested changes easier to follow.
Setup

- 1Connect Asana and Box once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or from any channel.
- 3Tell Notis to add relevant new task comments to the matching Box file as comments.
- 4Pick the Asana New Comment on Task trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real task comment and confirm it appears on the correct file.
Questions about this workflow
Will every task comment be copied?
Describe which comments are useful to carry over in your instruction. Notis can use the information available in the event and connected app data.
How should the matching file be identified?
Specify the matching clue, such as a Box link in the task or a documented file name. Notis needs enough information to avoid commenting on the wrong file.

Add initial classifications
