Connect task attachments to existing Contentful content

An attachment may be an example, draft, or reference. Notis can query Contentful using the task context and return entries that could help explain it.

Trigger

Attachment Added to Task

Triggers when an attachment is added to a task.

Action

GraphQL Content API Query

Tool to execute a GraphQL query against a specified space and environment. Use when fetching Contentful content via GraphQL after obtaining or providing a valid token.

Why this helps

Attachments often arrive without an obvious connection to the content already stored elsewhere.

  • Prompt a search when new reference material appears
  • Help teams connect task context to existing entries
  • Keep possible matches in a run report

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana and Contentful graphql once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to query Contentful using the task context when an attachment is added and report possible references.
  • 4Pick Asana Attachment Added to Task, choose a report channel, and test with one real example.

Questions about this workflow

Does the query inspect the attachment contents?

The listed event says an attachment was added, but does not guarantee its contents are available. Ask Notis to use task details and any attachment information actually provided.

Can this upload the attachment into Contentful?

No. The available Contentful actions here retrieve tokens or run GraphQL queries; they do not upload assets.
