Send attached contracts for signature

Attach the final document to its task, and let Notis handle the next step in the signing process.

Trigger

Attachment Added to Task

Triggers when an attachment is added to a task.

Action

Send Signature Request

Tool to create and send a new signature request with documents. Use when you need to send documents for electronic signature. The action sends emails to all specified signers with links to view and sign the documents. Supports multiple signers, CC recipients, custom fields, form fields, and various signing options. Documents can be uploaded directly or provided via publicly accessible URLs.

Why this helps

A final contract can sit in Asana after upload because someone still has to create and address the signature request.

  • Use the task's new attachment as the signal that a document is ready.
  • Keep signature requests tied to the work item that produced them.
  • Avoid creating requests when signer information has not been provided.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana and Dropbox Sign once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel what outcome you want.
  • 3In one instruction, explain which task attachments are final contracts and where to find signer details.
  • 4Choose Asana's Attachment Added to Task trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real attachment and verify the document and recipients.

Questions about this workflow

Will every task attachment be sent?

Describe how Notis should recognize a final contract. The trigger fires when an attachment is added, so your instruction should distinguish relevant documents from other files.

What if the attachment is not the final version?

Only use this flow when the added file is ready to send. If review is required, use a separate task status or section as the send signal.
