Notis

Assign Discord roles from task milestones

Keep access and recognition aligned with real work progress.

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

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.

Why this helps

Role changes lag behind operational milestones and require manual admin work.

  • Keep roles aligned with progress
  • Reduce admin steps
  • Make milestones visible

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Tasks and Discordbot in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Task milestone role update.
  • 3Tell Notis which milestone signal should assign the existing role and to whom.
  • 4Pick Task Updated as the trigger and choose the Discord server context.
  • 5Test with one qualifying update and confirm the role assignment.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a new role?

No. This workflow assigns an existing role and requires suitable bot permissions.

What if the task lacks a member identity?

The member must be identifiable from the task context or supplied instruction.
