Trigger
Task Updated
Triggers when a task is updated in a project.
Action
Generate PDF from webpage
This tool generates a pdf from a specified webpage using browserless's pdf generation api. it allows specifying the url of the webpage along with parameters such as format, filename, and waituntil options to control the pdf generation process.
Why this helps
A saved page copy can lag behind an updated task, leaving reviewers unsure whether they have current context.
- Generate a fresh PDF when task context changes.
- Make it easier to review the page again after edits.
- Keep the generated snapshot in the run output.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Browserless once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to generate a new PDF from the webpage URL in the updated task.
- 4Pick Asana's Task Updated trigger, then choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real updated task containing a webpage URL.
Questions about this workflow
Is this a comparison against an earlier PDF?
No earlier PDF is supplied by the trigger. Provide the previous copy or its details if you want Notis to compare versions.
Can I control when the page is considered loaded?
Browserless PDF generation supports wait-until options. State the loading preference in your instruction if needed.

Download file using Puppeteer script

Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Execute Custom Function

Unblock Protected Content
