Turn campaign follow-up into a focused subtask

Make the next campaign action small enough to pick up and finish.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create subtask

Creates a new asana subtask under an existing parent task (`task gid`); `due on` and `due at` are mutually exclusive and cannot be set simultaneously.

Why this helps

Campaign follow-up can remain vague when a request is buried in the parent task description.

  • Give a specific request its own trackable action.
  • Keep related work under the campaign's parent task.
  • Reduce ambiguity about the next step.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Beaconstac and Asana once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a subtask under the existing parent task identified in each request, using the request's specific follow-up as the subtask.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real request and verify the parent task and subtask.

Questions about this workflow

What is required to create a subtask?

The request or instruction must identify an existing parent task and provide the follow-up work to capture.

Can this create a top-level task?

This workflow uses the subtask action, which requires a parent task.
