Weekly Project Overview Delivered Automatically
Every Friday morning (or your chosen day), Notis sends a snapshot of your active Asana projects. See what's humming, what's stuck, all in one message.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get multiple projects
Returns a list of projects, optionally filtered by workspace, team, or archived status, supporting pagination for large datasets.
Why this helps
You lose track of what projects exist or their status. Rediscovery happens ad-hoc. Stalled projects don't resurface until deadlines loom.
- Weekly bird's-eye view: all active projects in one summary.
- Catch stalled work early: visibility helps unstuck projects before deadlines.
- Less meeting time: summary replaces a status meeting.
- Async-friendly: review on your schedule, not in a meeting.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana to Notis.
- 2Create the automation: 'Every Friday at 9am, send me a summary of all my active projects and their status.'
- 3Notis runs the summary on your schedule and delivers it to your chosen channel.
- 4Choose your notification channel.
- 5First week, verify the summary arrives and includes your projects.
Questions about this workflow
What details should be in the project summary?
By default, project name and status. You can add: owner, task count, completion %, upcoming milestones. Customize in your prompt.
Can I include archived projects or only active ones?
By default, active projects only. Tell Notis to include archived if you want those too.
Should the summary highlight projects at risk or behind schedule?
Yes. Tell Notis: 'Flag projects with low progress or past milestones.' It will highlight those for quick visibility.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to Asana. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Drive triggers
Asana actions
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
Add Followers to Task
Tool to add followers to a task in asana. use this tool when you need to add one or more users as followers to a specific task. this will notify them of updates to the task.
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
Add Supporting Relationship to Goal
Tool to add a supporting goal relationship to a goal. use when you want to link a project, task, portfolio, or another goal as a supporting resource to a specific goal in asana.
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
Add task to section
Adds an existing task to a section, optionally positioning it before or after another task in that section; if no position is specified, the task is added to the end.
File Shared (Permissions Added)
Triggers when new sharing permissions are granted to a file or folder. Uses Drive's `changes.list` endpoint with inline `permissions` in the `fields` mask so each change carries the file's current permission set provider-atomically. We diff that against `seen_permission_keys` to identify newly added grants. Drive page tokens are the primary cursor; if Drive rejects a stored token, the trigger raises `PollingTriggerError` without clearing state rather than silently re-baselining and dropping events. Limitation: truly ephemeral permissions (added and revoked between two polls without any other file modification in between) are not detected. Drive Activity API would catch those but requires an additional OAuth scope and a different payload contract.
Create Allocation
Creates a new allocation. use when you need to schedule or assign a specific amount of a user's time per week to a task or project within a defined period.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Create a project
Creates a new asana project, requiring either a `workspace` or `team` gid for association, and returns the full project details.
Google Drive Changes
Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.
Create a tag in a workspace
Creates a new tag, with properties like name and color defined in the request body, within a specific asana workspace (using `workspace gid`); this tag helps categorize tasks, is confined to the workspace, and is not automatically applied to tasks.
New File Matching Query
Triggers when a new Google Drive file matches a provided query. This is the legacy query-centric trigger: it preserves Drive API query config such as ``corpora`` / ``driveId`` aliases and emits the historical ``file_matching_query`` event type. ``FileCreatedTrigger`` covers the broader "new file" case and emits ``file_created``.
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.
Create Attachment for Task
Tool to upload an attachment to a task. use when you need to attach a file to a specific task in asana.
