Confirm the referenced Cal booking when Asana marks it approved
Use a deliberate task move to finalize a pending booking after your team has approved it.
Trigger
Task Moved to Section
Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.
Action
Confirm booking by uid
Confirms an existing booking by `bookinguid` if the booking exists and is in a state allowing confirmation (e.g., not already cancelled or confirmed); this finalizes the booking, does not modify its details, and should typically be performed once.
Why this helps
A booking can remain pending after the team has already made its decision in Asana.
- Finalize an approved pending booking from the existing task workflow.
- Avoid repeated manual confirmation checks.
- Use the task's booking UID as the booking reference.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Cal once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis what outcome you want from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to confirm the pending Cal booking identified by its UID when the task enters the approved section.
- 4Pick the Asana Task Moved to Section trigger, select a report channel, and test with one real pending booking.
Questions about this workflow
What must the Asana task contain?
It needs the booking UID for the pending Cal booking. The Cal action requires that identifier.
Can this confirm a canceled or already confirmed booking?
No. Cal only confirms a booking in a state that allows confirmation, such as one that is not already canceled or confirmed.
