Give stalled Bonsai projects a clear review step
Use a recurring review to turn quiet projects into a practical conversation about what is blocking progress.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create task in asana with specific details
Creates a new asana task; requires 'workspace', 'parent', or 'projects' for association, and 'followers', 'projects', 'tags' are set only at creation.
Why this helps
Projects may stall quietly when a missing decision or response has no visible owner for follow-up.
- Make supplied stalled project signals visible.
- Create a specific review action instead of relying on memory.
- Help the team identify and discuss blockers.
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 review the stalled Bonsai projects included in each scheduled request and create one Asana review task for each project with a supplied stalled signal.
- 4Pick the Notis cron trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real project snapshot and review the task context.
Questions about this workflow
How is stalled status determined?
The request must provide a status or a defined inactivity signal. Notis should not infer a baseline that the data does not include.
Does this send a client nudge?
No. It creates an internal Asana review task so the team can decide on an appropriate next step.
