Review Dotsimple tag details from Asana
Keep label context close to the task. When Asana reports a tag being added, Notis can retrieve the corresponding Dotsimple tag details for review.
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
Get Tag by UUID
Tool to retrieve details for a specific tag by uuid. use when you need full tag information after obtaining its identifier.
Why this helps
A label added during project work may be hard to reconcile with the tag vocabulary used in the social workspace.
- Bring tag metadata into the context of an Asana label update.
- Make label review easier without switching tools manually.
- Support consistent campaign vocabulary across workspaces.
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 tag review.
- 3Tell Notis to use the tag identifier reported by the Asana event to retrieve the relevant Dotsimple tag details, and report the result.
- 4Pick the Asana Tag Added to Task trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real tagged task and verify the report identifies the expected tag.
Questions about this workflow
Can the Asana tag identifier be used directly as a Dotsimple UUID?
Not necessarily. The apps may use different identifiers. Confirm that a matching Dotsimple UUID is available to Notis before relying on a lookup.
What does this trigger identify?
For Asana tag events, the resource is the task and the parent is the tag, so parent.gid gives the Asana tag GID.
