Make effort estimate changes visible in Asana
Carry estimate changes into the task activity your Asana collaborators can see.
Trigger
Task Time Estimate Updated
Triggers when a task's time estimate is set, changed, or cleared. `changes[]` carries `TimeEstimateChange` entries only; `before` and `after` are millisecond strings or `null`.
Action
Create task comment
Adds a new text comment (story) to an existing asana task, appearing in its activity feed.
Why this helps
Planning can rely on stale effort estimates when updates remain in another task tool.
- Surface changed or cleared estimates in Asana.
- Reduce manual planning updates.
- Include the before and after values provided by ClickUp.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ClickUp and Asana once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation.
- 3Ask Notis to post a note describing the prior and new estimate, including when an estimate is cleared, on the linked Asana task.
- 4Pick the ClickUp Task Time Estimate Updated trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real estimate change and review the Asana note.
Questions about this workflow
Can this directly update an Asana estimate field?
No. The listed Asana actions do not update task estimates, so this workflow adds a task comment.
What units does ClickUp provide?
The event describes before and after values as millisecond strings or null. Ask Notis to explain them clearly in the note.
