Automate GitHub Review Flags from Asana Attachments
A designer uploads a spec to Asana, but the dev team doesn't know to review it in GitHub. Notis adds a 'needs-review' label automatically, triggering the right workflow.
Trigger
Attachment Added to Task
Fires when an attachment is added to a task.
Action
Add labels to an issue
Add labels to a repository issue.
Why this helps
Document and design attachments in Asana don't trigger GitHub reviews or labels, causing delays and missed design feedback.
- Design and spec uploads are immediately visible to the dev team in GitHub
- Reduces time between sharing a design and getting feedback
- Creates a clear visual signal ('needs-review' label) in GitHub
- Eliminates manual label updates and follow-up messages
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and GitHub to Notis.
- 2Create an automation with the prompt: 'When an attachment is added to an Asana task, add a needs-review label to the GitHub issue.'
- 3Choose your notification channel and save.
- 4Test by uploading a document or design file to an Asana task and checking GitHub for the new label.
Questions about this workflow
Does this work for all attachment types?
Yes, any attachment (images, PDFs, design files, spreadsheets) will trigger the label. You can filter by file type in your prompt if needed.
Can I use a different label based on attachment type?
Yes. Tell Notis to detect file types and apply different labels, e.g., 'If PDF, add needs-review; if design file, add design-ready.'
What if someone adds a duplicate attachment?
The label will be re-applied if it's not already there. Notis is smart about avoiding duplicate labels.
