Review Elasticsearch fields when a task receives a tag

A tag can signal a new kind of work. Retrieve the relevant index schema at that moment so you can quickly see the fields available for related records.

Trigger

Tag Added to Task

Fires when a tag is added to a task.

Action

Get Index Schema

View the structure and field mappings of an index.

Why this helps

Understanding whether an index supports a new work category takes manual investigation and context switching.

  • Bring index field and type information into a tag-triggered report.
  • Make it easier to assess whether an index fits a task category.
  • Reduce repeated manual schema lookups.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve the schema for a specified Elasticsearch index when a task is tagged and summarize relevant fields.
  • 4Pick the Asana Tag Added to Task trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real tagged task and review the schema summary.

Questions about this workflow

Can the workflow determine the tag name from the trigger?

For Asana tag events, the task is the resource and the tag is the parent. The parent GID is the tag GID. Use the task and available event details in the instruction as appropriate.

Does the schema action search or change records?

No. It retrieves the mapping for a specific index so Notis can explain its fields and types.
