Auto-Create Project Calendars From Asana Tasks

A new project launches in Asana with its first task. Notis automatically creates a dedicated Google Calendar for that project so you can organize events by project from day one.

Trigger

New Task Created

Triggers when a new task is created in a project.

Action

Create a calendar

Creates a new, empty google calendar with the specified title (summary).

Why this helps

You have many projects in Asana but all events dump into one main calendar. It's impossible to filter by project or quickly see project-specific events.

  • Organize your calendar by project instead of mixing everything
  • Quickly filter and view events for a specific project
  • Share project calendars with team members easily
  • Automate calendar structure as projects come and go

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect both integrations to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'When a new task is created in a project I don't have a calendar for, create a dedicated Google Calendar for that project.'
  • 3Specify which Asana projects to monitor (or all).
  • 4Define the calendar naming convention (e.g., 'Project: [Project Name]').
  • 5Test by creating a task in a new Asana project and verifying a new calendar is created.

Questions about this workflow

Will this create a calendar for every project, even small ones?

By default, yes. You can refine it to only create calendars for projects above a certain size or with specific names.

Can I share the project calendar with team members?

Yes. Tell Notis to add specific people as viewers or editors when creating the calendar.

What happens to the calendar if the project is archived?

You can ask Notis to archive or delete the calendar when the Asana project is archived, keeping everything clean.
