Auto-post Project Status to Asana from Jira Updates
When a major blocker is resolved or status changes in Jira, Notis posts an update to your Asana project. Your stakeholders stay informed without needing status meetings.
Trigger
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.
Action
Create Project Status Update
Tool to create a new status update on a project. use when you need to communicate the current status, progress, or any blockers related to a specific project.
Why this helps
Status updates get forgotten or delayed because updating Asana isn't top of mind. Stakeholders feel out of the loop, leading to trust issues and unnecessary follow-up meetings.
- Stakeholders stay informed without status meetings
- Status updates are timely and never forgotten
- Improves trust and transparency across teams
- Reduces context-switching for project managers
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Asana to Notis.
- 2Ask Notis: 'When a high-priority Jira issue is updated, post a project status update to the matching Asana project.'
- 3Specify which issue types, priorities, or labels trigger status updates (e.g., Blockers, P0 issues, or specific epics).
- 4Choose your Asana project and which updates to track (status changes, resolutions, new blockers, etc.).
- 5Test by updating a Jira issue and verifying the status post appears in Asana.
Questions about this workflow
What gets included in the status update?
You can customize it to include the issue summary, status, blockers, next steps, or a pre-written template.
Will this create duplicate status updates?
No. Notis can deduplicate by batching updates or by posting only once per issue.
Can I require manual approval before posting a status?
Yes. Notis can send you the draft first and wait for approval before posting to Asana.
