Keep route updates with the Asana task

Put a changing BART route plan beside the work it affects, where teammates can find it.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create task comment

Adds a new text comment (story) to an existing asana task, appearing in its activity feed.

Why this helps

Travel changes shared in separate notifications can get missed by teammates working from an Asana task.

  • Keep travel context in the task activity feed.
  • Make route changes visible to people following the work.
  • Avoid rewriting the same update in multiple places.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bart and Asana once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one plain-language instruction, ask Notis to summarize the incoming BART route update and comment on the Asana task identified in the request.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real route update and an existing task.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a task?

No. It adds a comment to an existing task, so include the task identifier in the webhook request or instruction.

Can it calculate a new route?

Ask Notis to use Bart's route planning capability for the details needed. The workflow relies on information Bart can return and any identifiers you provide.
