Trigger
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a project.
Action
Create Folder
Tool to create a new asset folder. use when you need to organize assets into nested directories. use after confirming the folder path does not already exist.
Why this helps
A new project task can start collecting files before anyone has created an obvious place to organize them.
- Create a predictable place for task-related assets.
- Reduce setup steps at the start of a project.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Cloudinary once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a Cloudinary folder for each new task using its available task details.
- 4Pick Asana's New Task Created trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real task and confirm the folder path is appropriate and does not already exist.
Questions about this workflow
Will it create nested folders?
The Cloudinary action creates an asset folder. Describe the desired folder organization and check the run report; only use a path that does not already exist.
Can the task's project name be used in the path?
Ask Notis to use available task details. If project context is not returned with the event, provide the naming rule or missing context in your instruction.
