Give incoming work a clear first-step checklist
A small starter checklist can turn an ambiguous task into a manageable next action. Ask Notis to add the steps your team uses for this kind of work.
Trigger
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a project.
Action
Create checklist
Creates a new checklist with a specified name within an existing task, which can be identified by its standard id or a custom task id (if `custom task ids` is true, `team id` is also required).
Why this helps
New tasks often sit because nobody knows what the first few steps should be.
- Make first steps visible when work arrives
- Apply a consistent kickoff routine
- Lower the effort of getting started
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and ClickUp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Describe the starter checklist to create on the corresponding ClickUp task and how to identify that task.
- 4Pick Asana's New Task Created trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real task and check that the checklist appears in ClickUp.
Questions about this workflow
Can checklist steps vary by task type?
They can if the task type can be determined from available context and your instruction explains the different checklists.
Does this create checklist items too?
The selected action creates a checklist. If you need individual items created, that is a separate ClickUp action and should be designed as its own workflow.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Asana to Clickup. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Asana triggers
Clickup actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add dependency
Adds a 'waiting on' or 'blocking' dependency to a task, requiring either `depends on` (task becomes waiting on) or `dependency of` (task becomes blocking), but not both; `team id` is required if `custom task ids` is true.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Add guest to folder
Adds a guest to a folder with specified permissions; requires a clickup enterprise plan.
Attachment Added to Task
Triggers when an attachment is added to a task.
Add guest to list
Shares a clickup list with an existing guest user, granting them specified permissions; requires the workspace to be on the clickup enterprise plan.
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Add guest to task
Assigns a guest to a task with specified permissions; requires clickup enterprise plan, and `team id` if `custom task ids` is true.
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a project.
Add tags from time entries
Associates a list of specified tags with one or more time entries within a given team (workspace).
Task Moved to Section
Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.
Add tag to task
Adds an existing tag to a specified task; team id is required if custom task ids is true.
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.
Add task link
Links two existing and accessible clickup tasks, identified by `task id` (source) and `links to` (target).
Task Updated
Triggers when a task is updated in a project.
Add task to list
Adds an existing task to an additional clickup list; the "tasks in multiple lists" clickapp must be enabled in the workspace for this.
