Keep Asana collaborators in the loop on assignment changes
When work is assigned in ClickUp, make sure the relevant people can follow updates in Asana too.
Trigger
Task Assignee Updated
Triggers when an assignee is added to or removed from a task. `changes[]` carries `AssigneeAddChange` and/or `AssigneeRemoveChange` entries. A single event may bundle multiple adds and/or removes — for example when a workflow re-routes a task between two users in one operation.
Action
