Start transcription when an Asana task is ready

Use a meaningful section move as the handoff: when the task reaches your ready stage, Notis can order transcription from its accessible media URL.

Trigger

Task Moved to Section

Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.

Action

Order Transcript

Tool to create a new transcription order for audio/video at a url. use when you have an accessible media url and need to initiate transcription.

Why this helps

A recording can be ready for transcription while the person responsible still has to notice the status change and place an order.

  • Tie the order to the team's existing task progression.
  • Reduce manual monitoring of the transcription-ready stage.
  • Require an accessible media URL before ordering.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana and CastingWords 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 order a transcript when the task enters your transcription-ready stage and has an accessible media URL.
  • 4Pick Asana's Task Moved to Section trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test by moving one real task with an accessible media URL into that stage.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis create or rename the section for me?

This trigger watches a task moving to a section. Set up your team's section in Asana separately and pick the matching trigger in Notis.

What if the task has no media URL yet?

Tell Notis to report that the task needs an accessible media URL and not order until one is available.
