Announce new Google Tasks lists in Discord
Make new planning spaces understandable from the start.
Trigger
New Task List Created
Triggers when a new Google Tasks task list is created. This trigger monitors Google Tasks and fires when new task lists are detected.
Action
Post message to channel
Sends a message to a specified discord channel (text, embeds, stickers, components, attachments); requires `send messages` permission and one of `content`, `embeds`, `sticker ids`, or `attachments`.
Why this helps
A new list can appear without context, leaving teammates unsure how to use it.
- Explain why a list exists
- Reduce duplicate planning spaces
- Create shared awareness
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Tasks and Discordbot in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named New task list announcement.
- 3Tell Notis to explain the list purpose from available details and invite questions when context is missing.
- 4Pick New Task List Created as the trigger and choose the Discord channel.
- 5Test with one new list and review the announcement.
Questions about this workflow
What if the list has no description?
Notis can announce the name and flag that the purpose needs clarification.
Can this be limited to selected lists?
Describe the naming or content criteria in the automation instruction.

New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a Google Tasks list. Uses timestamp filtering (updatedMin) to efficiently detect new tasks.
Assign role to guild member
Assigns a role to a guild member, provided the bot has 'manage roles' permission in the guild and the role to be assigned is hierarchically lower than the bot's highest role.
New Task List Created
Triggers when a new Google Tasks task list is created. This trigger monitors Google Tasks and fires when new task lists are detected.
Add reaction to message
Adds an emoji reaction from the authenticated user/bot to a specific message in a discord channel; does not return information about existing reactions.
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.
Add or update thread member
Adds a user to a specific, unarchived thread; the user must have access to the thread's parent channel, and for private threads, the bot must already be a member.
Task List Changed
Triggers when a task list changes (title or content updates). This trigger monitors a specific Google Tasks list and fires when changes are detected.
Modify guild ban settings
Permanently bans a user from a discord guild, optionally deleting their recent messages (specify deletion period in seconds or days, not both).
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.
Bulk ban users in guild with message deletion option
Bans up to 200 users from a discord guild, optionally deleting their recent messages; the bot must have 'ban members' permission in the guild, and this action is irreversible.
Bulk delete messages in channel
Atomically bulk deletes messages in a discord channel for moderation or maintenance; deletion may not be instantaneous and messages are unrecoverable.
