Give operational task changes a timeline

Record significant task updates as Datadog events so your team can connect work changes with system behavior.

Trigger

Task Updated

Triggers when a task is updated in a project.

Action

Create event

Creates a new event in datadog. events are useful for tracking deployments, outages, configuration changes, and other important occurrences.

Why this helps

When task status changes are scattered across project tools, it is harder to connect them with incidents and deployments.

  • Connect work changes with operational timelines.
  • Make important task updates easier to investigate later.
  • Let Notis summarize useful task context in an event.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana and Datadog once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a new automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a Datadog event for task updates that represent a meaningful operational change, including available task context.
  • 4Pick the Asana Task Updated trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real task update and review the event content in Datadog.

Questions about this workflow

Will every task edit create an event?

Your instruction can ask Notis to record only updates that represent meaningful operational changes.

Can Notis include the previous task value?

Only if that history is available in the trigger data. If the previous value matters and is not provided, include it in the task or your instruction.
