Give every Salesforce opportunity a place to track its work
A new deal should not mean another manual setup task. Create its DeskTime project as soon as the opportunity changes.
Trigger
New or Updated Opportunity
Triggers when a Salesforce Opportunity is created or updated.
Action
Create Project with Optional Task
Tool to create a new project with an optional initial task. use when you need to set up a new desktime project programmatically.
Why this helps
Setting up time tracking for new deals takes attention away from moving them forward.
- Reduce project setup after an opportunity changes.
- Give deal related work a dedicated DeskTime project.
- Keep the project setup step connected to the sales event.

Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Salesforce and DeskTime once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
- 3Tell Notis to create a DeskTime project for a qualifying opportunity and add an initial task when useful.
- 4Pick New or Updated Opportunity, choose a report channel, and test with one real opportunity.

Can it create an initial task too?
Yes. DeskTime's Create Project with Optional Task action supports an optional initial task. Describe the task you want in your instruction.
