Turn an onboarding follow-up into a focused subtask
Give a concrete next step its own place under the main onboarding 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
A single onboarding task can hide distinct follow-ups that need to be tracked separately.
- Make a specific follow-up easier to track.
- Keep the subtask connected to the parent work.
- Clarify the next step without a separate task list.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Brilliant Directories and Asana once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3Describe the outcome: create a subtask under the identified onboarding parent task for the specific follow-up.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real parent task and follow-up.
