Auto-create Asana Tasks from New Jira Issues

Stop re-entering issues in two places. When a new issue lands in Jira, Notis instantly creates a matching task in Asana with full context. One source of truth, automatic synchronization.

Trigger

New Issue

Fires when a new issue is created in the Jira project you configure. Only issues created in that project produce an event.

Action

Create task in asana with specific details

Creates a new asana task; requires 'workspace', 'parent', or 'projects' for association, and 'followers', 'projects', 'tags' are set only at creation.

Why this helps

Neurodivergent founders often struggle with duplicate data entry across tools. Creating a Jira issue, then manually recreating it in Asana drains cognitive energy and invites errors.

  • Never manually re-enter a task again—saves hours per week
  • Eliminates context-switching between Jira and Asana
  • Ensures no dropped tasks or forgotten issues
  • Reduces decision fatigue by automating routine work

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect your Jira and Asana accounts to Notis (one-time setup in the portal).
  • 2Ask Notis: 'Create an automation that makes a new Asana task whenever a Jira issue is created.' Or go to Automations > New and describe it in plain language.
  • 3Select 'New Issue' as the trigger from Jira.
  • 4Choose your preferred Notis channel (Telegram, Slack, email) to receive run notifications.
  • 5Test by creating a sample issue in Jira and confirm it appears in Asana within seconds.

Questions about this workflow

Will descriptions and details copy over from Jira to Asana?

Yes. Notis reads the full issue context and creates a comprehensive Asana task with titles, descriptions, and key details automatically.

What if I don't want every Jira issue to sync?

You can refine your automation by asking Notis to sync only issues with certain labels, projects, or priority levels.

Can I assign people in Asana automatically?

Yes. Tell Notis to assign tasks to specific team members based on the Jira issue assignee or project.
