OneDrive Item Deleted Trigger
Triggers when a file or folder is deleted in OneDrive. Uses Gmail-style state management for reliable duplicate prevention.
Action
Create task comment
Adds a new text comment (story) to an existing asana task, appearing in its activity feed.
Why this helps
A deleted file or folder can leave an Asana task without the context people need to understand what happened.
- Make a deletion visible in the task activity feed.
- Preserve available item details for later reference.
- Help the team decide whether replacement or follow-up is needed.

- 1Connect OneDrive and Asana once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for deleted item tracking.
- 3Tell Notis how to identify the relevant Asana task and add a comment with the deleted item's available details.
- 4Pick the OneDrive item deleted trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real deletion event and verify the activity note.
