Auto-create Tags for New Jira Projects in Asana
New Jira project created? Asana automatically gets a matching tag. Your work is categorized and filterable immediately, no manual tag setup needed.
Trigger
New Project
Triggered when a new project is added in Jira
Action
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.
Why this helps
New projects often launch without proper categorization tags, making it impossible to filter or report on that project's work later. Manual tag creation gets forgotten.
- New projects are categorized and filterable immediately
- Ensures consistent tagging across all projects
- Reduces manual setup friction when launching new initiatives
- Improves reporting and visibility across project portfolio
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Asana to Notis.
- 2Ask Notis: 'When a new Jira project is created, automatically create a matching tag in Asana.'
- 3Select 'New Project' as your Jira trigger.
- 4Specify which Asana workspace receives the tags and any custom naming (e.g., prepend 'jira-' to tag names).
- 5Test by creating a new Jira project and verifying the tag appears in Asana.
Questions about this workflow
Can I apply the tag to existing tasks automatically?
Yes. Notis can tag all tasks from that Jira project when the tag is created, or only future tasks.
What if I want multiple tags per project?
Notis can create multiple tags (e.g., one for the project name and one for the department) at once.
Can I customize tag colors or names?
Absolutely. Specify a naming pattern, color scheme, or description for automatically created tags.
