Catch Docparser Connection Issues at the Task Cue
Use a task tag as a simple signal to check Docparser access before a team relies on document results.
Trigger
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.
Action
Ping API
Tool to test API authentication and connection health check for Docparser API. Use when you need to verify that API credentials are valid and the connection is working.
Why this helps
An expired or broken connection can surface only after someone is blocked waiting for document data.
- Check authentication and connectivity from a task signal.
- Surface access issues earlier in the workflow.
- Reduce troubleshooting after a document task is already blocked.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Docparser once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation that pings Docparser when the designated tag is added to a task.
- 3Pick the tag added trigger and specify the tag in the automation prompt.
- 4Choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test by applying the tag to one real task.
Questions about this workflow
Can the trigger identify which tag was added?
For Asana tag events, the event parent contains the tag GID. The prompt can use the added tag as the cue.
Does a successful ping confirm a parser is configured correctly?
It checks API authentication and connection health. It does not validate parser setup or document extraction.
