Notis

Weekly Log of All Asana Task Changes

Every Monday morning, Notis sends a log of all changes to your Asana tasks from the past week—who updated what, status changes, everything.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Get Events on a Resource

Retrieve events on a resource to monitor changes. use when you need to track activity or changes related to a specific asana resource like a task, project, or tag.

Why this helps

Weeks pass, you're unsure what progress was made, what blockers came up, what decisions were made. Rediscovering history is painful.

  • Weekly changelog: you see all task progress in one summary.
  • Context clarity: know who did what and when without hunting through comments.
  • Accountability visible: activity log shows who's engaged and progressing.
  • Async-friendly: review changes on your schedule, not in meetings.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana to Notis.
  • 2Create the automation: 'Every Monday at 9am, send me a log of all changes to my Asana tasks from the past week.'
  • 3Notis runs the audit and delivers the activity log to your chosen channel.
  • 4Choose your notification channel.
  • 5First week, verify the activity log arrives and includes task changes.

Questions about this workflow

What changes are included in the activity log?

Status updates, assignee changes, due date shifts, comments, and attachment additions. You can customize what's included in your prompt.

Can I filter to specific projects or tasks?

Yes. Tell Notis: 'Only show changes to high-priority tasks,' or 'Only my assigned tasks.' It applies the filter.

Should the log include completed or archived tasks?

By default, active tasks only. You can ask Notis to include completed tasks if you want the full picture.

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.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

File Created

Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

File Deleted or Trashed

Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

File Updated

Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.

TriggerPolling

Create a project

Creates a new asana project, requiring either a `workspace` or `team` gid for association, and returns the full project details.

ActionInstant

Google Drive Changes

Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

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``.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Not just Google Drive and Asana. Any combination from 1,000+ integrations.
