Never Miss Critical Feedback: WhatsApp Alerts for Priority Task Comments
Your top client's task gets a comment from your team lead. Notis immediately sends you a WhatsApp message with the comment so you can respond while it's fresh.
Trigger
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Action
Send message
Send a text message to a whatsapp number. note: the message will reflect on the recipient's phone number only if they have texted first.
Why this helps
Important feedback on critical tasks gets buried under other notifications. By the time you see the comment, the conversation has moved on and context is lost.
- Instant alerts for critical feedback
- Faster response times on priority work
- Better collaboration on urgent tasks
- Reduced feedback delays
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and WhatsApp to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When someone comments on tasks tagged as high-priority or urgent, send me a WhatsApp message with the comment.'
- 3Notis will confirm which tags or sections indicate priority and who receives alerts.
- 4Test by adding a comment to a high-priority task and observing the WhatsApp notification.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which tasks are high-priority?
You define it. Either by task tags ('urgent,' 'high-priority'), section membership ('VIP Client'), or assignment to specific people. Tell Notis your criteria.
Can I get a digest of comments instead of individual alerts?
Yes. Tell Notis: 'send me a summary of all high-priority comments once a day at 9 AM' instead. You control the cadence.
What if a teammate adds their own comment?
Tell Notis whether to include your own comments or skip them. Most people prefer: 'alert me on comments from anyone except me.'

Tag Added to Task
Triggers when a tag is added to a task. Note: Asana's event structure is inverted for tag events — the resource is the task and the parent is the tag. So parent.gid gives the tag GID.
