Notion Status Changes Organize Your Asana Tasks
When you update a property in Notion, Notis automatically moves the matching Asana task to the right section. Your workflow stays organized without lifting a finger.
Trigger
Page Properties Updated
Triggers when properties of a Notion page are updated. Customer optionally scopes with at most one of: - data_source_id: any row in this data source - page_id: this specific page - parent_page_id: any page whose immediate parent is this page With none set, fires for any property change in the workspace the integration has access to. Adding a column to a data source fires this trigger once per existing row. Customers can branch on `data.updated_properties` (array of property IDs) to filter downstream.
Action
Add task to section
Adds an existing task to a section, optionally positioning it before or after another task in that section; if no position is specified, the task is added to the end.
Why this helps
Manually organizing tasks by status or priority in Asana creates redundant work, especially when that status already lives in Notion. Context-switching between tools to keep sections clean burns mental energy.
- Keep Asana sections organized without manual task moves
- Synchronize status updates across both tools
- Reduce context-switching and task re-prioritization
- Ensure your team sees tasks in the right workflow stage
- Maintain a single source of truth for project status
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Asana to Notis via the portal.
- 2Create a new automation named 'Notion status to Asana sections'.
- 3Write your prompt: 'When a page property is updated in Notion, move the corresponding Asana task to the section that matches the new status.'
- 4Select 'Page Properties Updated' as your trigger and pick your notification channel.
- 5Test by changing a property (like Status from 'Backlog' to 'In Progress') on a Notion page and watch the task move in Asana.
Questions about this workflow
What if a Notion property doesn't match an Asana section name?
You can tell Notis how to map them in your prompt. For example: 'If the status is "Waiting for feedback", move the task to the "Review" section in Asana.'
Will this work with custom properties in Notion?
Yes. Notis can read any property you've set up in Notion and use it to trigger the section move in Asana.
Can I trigger this on multiple property changes?
Yes. Your prompt can specify multiple properties: 'If either the Status or Priority changes in Notion, update the Asana task's section accordingly.'

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Asana. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Asana actions
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Add Followers to Task
Tool to add followers to a task in asana. use this tool when you need to add one or more users as followers to a specific task. this will notify them of updates to the task.
Comment Created
Triggers when a new comment is created in Notion. Optional `page_id` filter scopes to comments on a specific page. When omitted, fires for any new comment in the workspace the integration has access to. Requires the 'Read comments' capability on the Notion integration. If a connection was authorized before that capability was enabled, the user must re-authorize the connection for comment events to flow.
Add Supporting Relationship to Goal
Tool to add a supporting goal relationship to a goal. use when you want to link a project, task, portfolio, or another goal as a supporting resource to a specific goal in asana.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Add task to section
Adds an existing task to a section, optionally positioning it before or after another task in that section; if no position is specified, the task is added to the end.
Database Created
Triggers when a new Notion database (the container) is created. A database is the post-2025-09-03 container that holds one or more data sources. This trigger fires for the container's creation event (`database.created`), distinct from `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` which fires when a new data source is added to an existing database. Most customers calling Notion's `POST /v1/databases` (the legacy API) or creating a database via the Notion UI will see this event. Adding a new data source to an existing database fires `data_source.created` instead — use `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` for that. Notion's payload puts `entity.type: "block"` (the container is a `child_database` block in the content tree) and `entity.id` is the database id.
Create Allocation
Creates a new allocation. use when you need to schedule or assign a specific amount of a user's time per week to a task or project within a defined period.
Data Source Created
Triggers when a new Notion data source is created. Fires workspace-wide. The payload's `data.parent` carries the data source's tree parent (typically the teamspace) for downstream filtering. A single template-based database creation can fire multiple `data_source.created` events at once — one per data source the template instantiates.
Create a project
Creates a new asana project, requiring either a `workspace` or `team` gid for association, and returns the full project details.
Data Source Schema Updated
Triggers when a Notion data source's schema is updated. Fires on column add / remove / rename. Payload includes `data.updated_properties: [{id, name, action}]` so consumers can discriminate the kind of change downstream. Optional `data_source_id` filter scopes to schema changes on a single data source. When omitted, fires for any schema change in the workspace the integration has access to. Note: adding a column also fires `page.properties_updated` once per existing row in the data source. Customers wanting a single structural-change signal should use this trigger.
Create a tag in a workspace
Creates a new tag, with properties like name and color defined in the request body, within a specific asana workspace (using `workspace gid`); this tag helps categorize tasks, is confined to the workspace, and is not automatically applied to tasks.
New Page
Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.
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.
Page Added to Page
Fires when a new subpage (a `child_page` type block) is added under a specified parent Notion page.
Create Attachment for Task
Tool to upload an attachment to a task. use when you need to attach a file to a specific task in asana.
