Trigger
Task Updated
Triggers when an existing task is updated in a Google Tasks list. This trigger monitors a specific task list and fires when tasks are modified.
Action
Create task comment
Adds a new text comment (story) to an existing asana task, appearing in its activity feed.
Why this helps
Personal list changes can leave a shared project task out of date.
- Keep a shared task informed
- Give list changes a visible record
- Reduce manual progress updates
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Tasks and Asana once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel to comment on a specified Asana task with a concise summary when the monitored Google Tasks list is updated.
- 3Pick the Google Tasks Task Updated trigger for the list and choose where run reports go.
- 4Test by updating one real task and check the comment on the specified Asana task.
Questions about this workflow
Where will the comment appear?
It appears in the activity feed of the Asana task you identify in your instruction.
Can the comment describe changes that are not returned?
No. Notis can summarize available update information, but it needs supplied history to state a before-and-after change.
