Auto-attach Jira Links and Docs to Asana Tasks
New Jira issue with attachments? The relevant links get attached to the Asana task automatically. All documentation stays together.
Trigger
New Issue
Fires when a new issue is created in the Jira project you configure. Only issues created in that project produce an event.
Action
Create Attachment for Task
Tool to upload an attachment to a task. use when you need to attach a file to a specific task in asana.
Why this helps
Important context (specs, wireframes, designs, past decisions) gets attached to Jira but not Asana, forcing team members to jump between tools to see complete context.
- All relevant context and attachments stay together
- Reduces context-switching when working on a task
- Team always sees complete picture without jumping tools
- Ensures nothing gets lost in document silos
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Asana to Notis.
- 2Ask Notis: 'When a new Jira issue is created, attach any links or documents to the matching Asana task.'
- 3Specify which types of attachments to sync (e.g., all attachments, only certain file types, or external links).
- 4Select 'New Issue' as your Jira trigger.
- 5Test by creating a Jira issue with attachments and verifying they appear in Asana.
Questions about this workflow
Can I filter which attachments get synced?
Yes. Notis can sync specific file types, skip internal documents, or only attach external links.
What if the attachment is very large?
Notis will attach the link even if Asana can't host the full file, maintaining the reference.
Do existing Jira issue attachments sync retroactively?
You can ask Notis for a one-time sync of existing issues, or only sync new issues going forward.

Jira triggers
Asana actions
New Issue

Add Followers to Task

New Project

Add Supporting Relationship to Goal
Tool to add a supporting goal relationship to a goal. use when you want to link a project, task, portfolio, or another goal as a supporting resource to a specific goal in asana.
Updated Issue
Fires when an existing issue is changed in the Jira project you configure — for example its status, assignee, or any other field on the issue is updated. Only issues in that project produce an event. It does not fire on comment activity: adding, editing, or deleting a comment on an issue will not produce an event from this trigger.
Add task to section
Adds an existing task to a section, optionally positioning it before or after another task in that section; if no position is specified, the task is added to the end.
Create Allocation
Creates a new allocation. use when you need to schedule or assign a specific amount of a user's time per week to a task or project within a defined period.
Create a project
Creates a new asana project, requiring either a `workspace` or `team` gid for association, and returns the full project details.
Create a tag in a workspace
Creates a new tag, with properties like name and color defined in the request body, within a specific asana workspace (using `workspace gid`); this tag helps categorize tasks, is confined to the workspace, and is not automatically applied to tasks.
Create task in asana with specific details
Creates a new asana task; requires 'workspace', 'parent', or 'projects' for association, and 'followers', 'projects', 'tags' are set only at creation.
Create Attachment for Task
Tool to upload an attachment to a task. use when you need to attach a file to a specific task in asana.
