Organize question banks from course plans

Give new course work a place in the Classmarker question bank as soon as planning begins.

Trigger

New Task Created

Triggers when a new task is created in a project.

Action

Create a new question category

Tool to create a new question category. Use after confirming the parent category ID.

Why this helps

A course can be underway in Asana before anyone creates the matching place for its questions.

  • Create a question bank category from course planning context.
  • Keep category setup connected to the source task.
  • Surface a missing parent category ID in the run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana and Classmarker once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and explain when a task represents a new course category and provide the parent category ID.
  • 3Pick New Task Created as the trigger.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real course planning task.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow find the parent category automatically?

The action requires a confirmed parent category ID. Supply it in the task or instruction before asking Notis to create the category.

What if no parent category is supplied?

Ask Notis to report the missing ID and leave the category uncreated until the information is available.
