Track pending Box invites in Asana
An outstanding collaboration invite can be easy to forget. Notis can create an Asana follow-up task when a new pending Box invite appears.
Trigger
New Pending Collaboration Invite
Triggers when a new pending collaboration invite is created. This trigger monitors the user's pending collaborations and fires when new pending collaboration invites are detected.
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
Pending invites can stall work when no one is reminded to check whether access was accepted.
- Give pending invites a place for follow-up
- Capture available invite context in Asana
- Reduce manual checks for new invitations

Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow detect when an invite is accepted?

You can describe an assignee in your instruction if that information is available to Notis. The chosen create task action supports task details.
