Catch up on task changes from Discord
Let Notis turn task updates into a short, useful recap for the channel where your team talks through work.
Trigger
Task Updated
Triggers when a task is updated in a project.
Action
Post message to channel
Sends a message to a specified discord channel (text, embeds, stickers, components, attachments); requires `send messages` permission and one of `content`, `embeds`, `sticker ids`, or `attachments`.
Why this helps
Small task changes create a stream of context switching when everyone has to check Asana manually.
- Catch task changes in your conversation flow
- Make updates easier to scan
- Spend less time checking project boards
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Discordbot once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to summarize the updated task and the change details Asana provides, then post to the chosen Discord channel.
- 4Pick Asana's Task Updated trigger and choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one real task update and review the summary.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis describe exactly what changed?
It can summarize change details available in the event data; it should not assume unavailable history.
Can updates go to a specific Discord channel?
Yes. Name the destination channel in your instruction.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Asana to Discordbot. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Asana triggers
Discordbot actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add recipient to group channel
Adds a user to a discord group direct message (dm) channel.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Update guild member information
Adds a user (who is not already a member) to a guild using their `access token` (which must have `guilds.join` scope), optionally setting nickname, roles, mute/deaf status, or flags.
Attachment Added to Task
Triggers when an attachment is added to a task.
Assign role to guild member
Assigns a role to a guild member, provided the bot has 'manage roles' permission in the guild and the role to be assigned is hierarchically lower than the bot's highest role.
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Add reaction to message
Adds an emoji reaction from the authenticated user/bot to a specific message in a discord channel; does not return information about existing reactions.
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a project.
Add or update thread member
Adds a user to a specific, unarchived thread; the user must have access to the thread's parent channel, and for private threads, the bot must already be a member.
Task Moved to Section
Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.
Modify guild ban settings
Permanently bans a user from a discord guild, optionally deleting their recent messages (specify deletion period in seconds or days, not both).
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.
Bulk ban users in guild with message deletion option
Bans up to 200 users from a discord guild, optionally deleting their recent messages; the bot must have 'ban members' permission in the guild, and this action is irreversible.
Task Updated
Triggers when a task is updated in a project.
Bulk delete messages in channel
Atomically bulk deletes messages in a discord channel for moderation or maintenance; deletion may not be instantaneous and messages are unrecoverable.
