Keep Brex expense follow-ups moving in Asana

Route expenses that need attention into one clear Asana task, with the missing details and next step ready to act on.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

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

Expense exceptions can sit in a finance queue while the person who can resolve them is busy or unsure what is missing.

  • Give each expense exception a visible next step.
  • Include the missing information in the task so the assignee can act without chasing context.
  • Keep unresolved expenses out of memory and scattered messages.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Brex and Asana once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create an Asana task for each Brex expense that needs a receipt, business purpose, or other missing detail, and include the expense context and requested next step.
  • 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real Brex expense exception and confirm the task is actionable.

Questions about this workflow

What starts this automation?

A notis_webhook trigger starts it when an HTTP request is sent to the automation. The request needs to provide the Brex expense context for Notis to use.

Can it decide which expenses are missing information?

Notis can act on the expense details it receives from Brex. Make sure the webhook request or connected Brex data includes the exception or missing-detail context.
