Text the Right Person When an Asana Task Gets Tagged
Use a meaningful tag to bring selected work to someone's attention with one short text.
Trigger
Tag Added to Task
Triggers when a tag is added to a task. Note: Asana's event structure is inverted for tag events — the resource is the task and the parent is the tag. So parent.gid gives the tag GID.
Action
Send SMS Messages
Tool to send one or more SMS messages via ClickSend. Use when you need to send SMS messages to recipients. Supports up to 1000 messages per API call and provides detailed status for each message.
Why this helps
Priority tags are easy to miss when they are buried in a project list.
- Give selected tagged work a direct route to attention.
- Keep the SMS focused on the task and its tag.
- Reduce reliance on manual project scans.

- 1Connect Asana and ClickSend once in the Notis portal.

- 4Choose the Asana Tag Added to Task trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real tagged task; the tag GID is available as parent.gid in this event structure.
