Reply to Asana Task Comments via WhatsApp
A teammate comments on your Asana task. Instead of opening Asana, you get a WhatsApp message with the comment and can reply without leaving the chat.
Trigger
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Action
Send reply
Send a reply to a specific message in a whatsapp conversation. this creates a contextual reply that shows which message you're responding to. note: the reply will be delivered to the recipient only if they have texted first.
Why this helps
Switching to Asana to reply to a comment disrupts flow, especially for founders with attention regulation challenges. Messages pile up as you toggle between apps.
- Reply to feedback in one chat app
- Fewer app switches throughout the day
- Comments stay threaded and organized
- Faster team collaboration
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Ensure Asana and WhatsApp are connected to Notis.
- 2Ask Notis: 'When someone comments on my Asana task, send me the comment in WhatsApp so I can reply.'
- 3Notis will confirm the integration and ask for your WhatsApp number.
- 4Test by having a teammate add a comment to an Asana task and watch for the WhatsApp notification.
Questions about this workflow
Does my reply show up in Asana?
Notis reads the context of your instruction. If you want replies posted back to Asana, tell Notis: 'post my WhatsApp reply to the Asana comment thread.' For now, replies stay in WhatsApp — you decide whether to copy them back.
Will I get an alert for every comment or just new ones?
The trigger is 'new comment,' so you only get alerts for fresh comments, not the entire history.
Can I mute comments from specific team members?
Ask Notis to filter — for example, 'only alert me on comments from [Team Lead Name]' or 'skip notifications from my own comments.'

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.
