Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Dotsimple once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for asset review.
- 3Tell Notis which Dotsimple media file identifier to retrieve when an Asana task gets an attachment, and include its details in the report.
- 4Pick the Asana Attachment Added to Task trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real attachment event and a known Dotsimple media file identifier.
Questions about this workflow

What details are returned?
The action retrieves metadata for a specific Dotsimple media file. The exact fields depend on the file details Dotsimple returns.
