Auto-Clean Your Calendar When Tasks Complete

You finish a task and move it to 'Done' in Asana. Notis immediately removes that event from your Google Calendar so your calendar reflects what's actually on your plate.

Task Moved to Section

Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.

Action

Delete event

Deletes a specified event by `event id` from a google calendar (`calendar id`); this action is idempotent and raises a 404 error if the event is not found.

Why this helps

Completed work still shows on your calendar as 'in progress' events. Your calendar becomes cluttered with finished tasks, making it harder to see what you actually need to do.

  • Keep your calendar accurate and clutter-free
  • See only active work on your calendar, not completed tasks
  • Reduce visual noise and mental overhead
  • Automate a common source of calendar debt

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect both integrations to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'When a task moves to Done (or Completed, or Archive), delete the matching event from my Google Calendar.'
  • 3Specify which Asana project to monitor.
  • 4Choose how Notis matches events to tasks (by title, description, or task ID).
  • 5Test by completing a task in Asana and verifying the calendar event disappears.

Questions about this workflow

What if there's no matching calendar event?

Notis will safely skip it. It only deletes events that correspond to tasks.

Can I use different sections instead of 'Done'?

Yes. Tell Notis which section movements should trigger deletion (e.g., 'Completed' or 'Cancelled').

Will this work for archived tasks?

Yes. You can set it to trigger on archival, moving to a specific section, or both.
