Schedule dataset refreshes from Asana update requests
Make a data refresh request actionable from the project conversation where the change is reported.
Trigger
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Action
Create Dataset Refresh Job
Tool to schedule a dataset refresh job in DataRobot. Use when you need to automate periodic data updates for a dataset. The schedule must be at least daily (hourly schedules are not supported).
Why this helps
Teams can keep using stale data when a refresh request is left in a comment without an owner or next step.
- Convert a refresh request into a scheduled job.
- Reduce manual reminders to update a dataset.
- Keep the refresh request tied to the task conversation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and DataRobot once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for dataset refresh requests.
- 3Describe that Notis should schedule a daily refresh for the DataRobot dataset identified in the update comment.
- 4Pick Asana New Comment on Task and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one comment that identifies a valid dataset and requests a daily refresh.
Questions about this workflow
Can I schedule hourly refreshes?
No. The action requires a schedule of at least daily, and hourly schedules are not supported.
What should the comment identify?
It should identify the DataRobot dataset to refresh and make clear that a daily schedule is requested.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Asana to Datarobot. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Asana triggers
Datarobot actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add Users to Group
Tool to add one or more users to a DataRobot user group by groupId. Use when you have a valid groupId and want to add existing usernames. Limit 100 users per request.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Add User to Organization
Tool to add a user to an existing organization. Use when you have an organizationId and wish to add or create a user within it.
Attachment Added to Task
Triggers when an attachment is added to a task.
Analyze Dataset Definition
Tool to analyze a dataset definition by ID. Use when you need to trigger an analysis job that retrieves dataset metadata, schema, and statistics.
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Archive Model Package
Tool to archive a DataRobot model package. Use when you need to archive a model package that is no longer actively used.
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a project.
Build Java Scoring Code Package
Initiates an asynchronous build of a Java JAR package containing DataRobot Scoring Code for a deployment. The JAR can be executed locally for predictions or used as a library in Java applications. Use after confirming the deployment is active and supports scoring code. Poll the returned statusId or location URL to track build progress.
Task Moved to Section
Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.
Cancel Notebook Job
Tool to cancel a running or pending notebook job execution. Use when you need to stop a notebook job that is currently executing or queued. The cancellation is immediate and cannot be undone.
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.
Cancel Project Job
Tool to cancel a pending job for a project. Use when you need to stop a queued or running job after confirming its ID.
Task Updated
Triggers when a task is updated in a project.
Check Project Status
Tool to check the status of a DataRobot project. Use after creating or loading a project to monitor its stage and Autopilot completion.
