Turn a new Asana task into a Composio agent run
For repeatable requests that need a few connected app steps, pass the task context to a Composio agent and get a run report.
Trigger
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a project.
Action
Execute agent
Execute complex workflows using ai agent reasoning between multiple tool calls. use this for: complex multi-step workflows requiring reasoning, error handling and retry logic. use composio multi execute tool instead for: simple parallel operations, batch operations on similar data (e.g., fetch 5 emails, get 10 sent messages, retrieve multiple user profiles), independent tool calls that don't need each other's results, or bulk operations where all parameters are known upfront. performance: agent calls add ~2-3 seconds overhead. use for workflows >3 tools or requiring conditional logic. avoid for simple parameter passing.
Why this helps
Small cross app tasks can linger when completing them requires several tool calls and a fresh burst of attention.
- Pass the task request into an agent run without retyping it.
- Use agent reasoning for multi-step work across connected tools.
- Receive a report that helps you see what was completed.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Composio once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis what requests the Composio agent may handle and what result to report.
- 4Pick the Asana New Task Created trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real task whose requested action is clear.
Questions about this workflow
Will the agent act on every task?
You can instruct Notis to proceed only when the task clearly requests an allowed action, and otherwise report that it needs review.
Can I ask it to perform multi-step work?
Yes. Describe the desired outcome and boundaries in your instruction. The Composio agent is intended for complex workflows using available tools.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Asana to Composio. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Asana triggers
Composio actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Ask Oracle
Static helper that returns a comprehensive system prompt describing how to plan and execute tasks using the available composio tools and workflows. no inputs required; simply call to retrieve the prompt. always call this after the search tool is executed -- it will provide the best context on how to proceed, chain tools, and execute the task end-to-end. relevant tools referenced by the prompt: 1. composio search tools 2. composio multi execute tool 3. composio execute code 4. composio manage connections 5. composio bash tool
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Check active connection (deprecated)
Deprecated: use check active connections instead for bulk operations. check active connection status for a toolkit or specific connected account id. returns connection details if active, or required parameters for establishing connection if none exists. active connections enable agent actions on the toolkit.
Attachment Added to Task
Triggers when an attachment is added to a task.
Check multiple active connections
Check active connection status for multiple toolkits or specific connected account ids. returns connection details if active, or required parameters for establishing connection if none exists. active connections enable agent actions on toolkits.
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Create Plan
This is a workflow builder that ensures the LLM produces a complete, step-by-step plan for any use case. WHEN TO CALL: - Call this tool based on COMPOSIO_SEARCH_TOOLS output. If search tools response indicates create_plan should be called and the usecase is not easy, call it. - Use this tool after COMPOSIO_SEARCH_TOOLS or COMPOSIO_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS to generate an execution plan for the user's use case. - USE for medium or hard tasks — skip it for easy ones. - If the user switches to a new use case in the same chat and COMPOSIO_SEARCH_TOOLS again instructs you to call the planner, you MUST call this tool again for that new use case. Memory Integration: - You can choose to add the memory received from the search tool into the known_fields parameter of the plan function to enhance planning with discovered relationships and information. Outputs a complete plan with sections such as "workflow_steps", "complexity_assessment", "decision_matrix", "failure_handling" "output_format", and more as needed. If you skip this step for non-easy tasks, workflows will likely be incomplete, or fail during execution for complex tasks. Calling it guarantees reliable, accurate, and end-to-end workflows aligned with the available tools and connections.
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a project.
Enable trigger
Enable a specific trigger for the authenticated user.
Task Moved to Section
Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.
Execute agent
Execute complex workflows using ai agent reasoning between multiple tool calls. use this for: complex multi-step workflows requiring reasoning, error handling and retry logic. use composio multi execute tool instead for: simple parallel operations, batch operations on similar data (e.g., fetch 5 emails, get 10 sent messages, retrieve multiple user profiles), independent tool calls that don't need each other's results, or bulk operations where all parameters are known upfront. performance: agent calls add ~2-3 seconds overhead. use for workflows >3 tools or requiring conditional logic. avoid for simple parameter passing.
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.
Execute Composio Tool
Execute a tool using the composio api.
Task Updated
Triggers when a task is updated in a project.
Get Tool Dependency Graph
Get the dependency graph for a given tool, showing related parent tools that might be useful. this action calls the composio labs dependency graph api to retrieve tools that are commonly used together with or before the specified tool. this helps discover related tools and understand common workflows.
