Task movements trigger account lookups

Move a task to a specific section in Asana, and Notis retrieves the related account information from Salesforce. You always have the latest account context.

Trigger

Task Moved to Section

Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.

Action

Get account

Retrieves a specific account by id from salesforce, returning all available fields.

Why this helps

You move tasks between sections in Asana but lack instant visibility into the associated account details in Salesforce.

  • Get account details instantly when tasks progress
  • Improve decision-making with current account context
  • Reduce time spent switching to Salesforce to look up accounts
  • Keep account information fresh in your workflow

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect both integrations to Notis
  • 2Ask Notis: 'When a task moves to [section], look up and fetch the related account details from Salesforce'
  • 3Notis monitors the section and retrieves account info
  • 4Select trigger: Task Moved to Section (Asana event)
  • 5Choose notification channel for retrieved data
  • 6Test by moving a task to the section and checking that account details are fetched

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis know which account to look up?

Specify in your prompt: 'Use the task name to find the account' or 'the task description contains the account name or ID.'

What account details are returned?

All available fields by default. You can refine: 'Return only name, industry, and revenue' to keep it simple.

What if no matching account is found?

Ask Notis to notify you or create a placeholder: 'Alert me if no account is found' or 'create an account if one doesn't exist.'
