Sync Asana Tags to GitHub Labels for Unified Priority Tracking
Tag a task as 'urgent' in Asana, but GitHub doesn't know it's urgent. Notis syncs your tags to GitHub labels instantly, keeping priority visible everywhere.
Trigger
Tag Added to Task
Fires when a tag is added to a task.
Action
Add labels to an issue
Add labels to a repository issue.
Why this helps
Tags in Asana don't propagate to GitHub labels, forcing manual re-tagging and risking missed priorities.
- Priority and type information is consistent across Asana and GitHub
- Eliminates manual re-tagging and reduces busy-work
- Allows GitHub filters and automations to respond to Asana priorities
- Reduces context-switching by keeping metadata in one place
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and GitHub to Notis.
- 2Create an automation with the prompt: 'When a tag is added to an Asana task, add a matching GitHub label to the issue. Map tags like urgent → urgent, bug → bug, feature → feature.'
- 3Choose your notification channel and test by tagging a task in Asana.
- 4Verify the label appears on the GitHub issue immediately.
Questions about this workflow
What if I use different tag names in Asana than label names in GitHub?
Include the mapping in your automation prompt, e.g., 'If Asana tag is high-priority, add GitHub label urgent.'
Can multiple tags create multiple labels?
Yes. Each tag in Asana will create a corresponding label in GitHub (or add an existing label). Tag as much as you need.
Does this work with custom Asana tags?
Absolutely. Asana's tag system is flexible, and Notis will sync any tag you add. Just tell Notis which tags matter for GitHub.
