Break contract deliverables into Asana subtasks
Give a broad client commitment a smaller, visible set of next actions under its parent task.
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
Large contract commitments can feel hard to start when the team has no clear breakdown of the work.
- Make agreed work easier to start and track.
- Keep the breakdown connected to a parent task.
- Preserve relevant supplied dates and deliverable context.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bonsai and Asana once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to create Asana subtasks under the specified parent task for the distinct deliverables supplied from a Bonsai contract, retaining dates only when provided.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real contract and review the subtasks under the intended parent.
Questions about this workflow
Does this invent missing deadlines?
No. Dates should only be included when supplied in the request or agreement context.
What does the request need to identify?
It needs to identify an existing Asana parent task and provide the contract deliverables to break down.
