Correct Ashby sources from Google Tasks

Keep attribution trustworthy when new recruiting context appears.

Trigger

Task Details Changed

Triggers when a specific task's details change. This trigger monitors a single Google Task and fires when any of its details (title, notes, status, due date, completion, position) are modified.

Action

Change Application Source

Change the source attribution of an application. Use this to update which source and user should be credited for bringing in the candidate.

Why this helps

Source data becomes inaccurate when referral details arrive after the initial application.

  • Improve source reporting
  • Credit referrals correctly
  • Avoid manual attribution cleanup

  • 1Connect Google Tasks and Ashby in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation for source corrections.
  • 3Tell Notis to update the named application source using the changed task details.
  • 4Choose Task Details Changed as the trigger.
  • 5Select a report channel and test with a task that contains a clear source update.

Questions about this workflow

Can the source include a referring user?

Yes, include the user or referral context when Ashby supports it and the task identifies it.

What if several applications match?

Instruct Notis to stop and report ambiguous matches.
