Start planned Basecamp projects on time

Give recurring work a consistent kickoff without rebuilding its project setup each time.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create Project from Template

Tool to create a new project from a Basecamp template asynchronously. Use when you need to instantiate a project based on an existing template. Poll the returned URL to monitor construction progress until status becomes 'completed'.

Why this helps

Recurring initiatives can start late when someone has to remember to create and prepare a project manually.

  • Start a project from an existing template
  • Create a consistent home for recurring work
  • Reduce manual setup at each cycle

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notis and Basecamp once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and name it for the scheduled project kickoff.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a project from the Basecamp template you specify when the schedule runs.
  • 4Pick a Notis cron trigger, set the intended schedule, and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real example and verify the project creation completes.
