Turn Salesforce Opportunities into Clear Asana Action Items

When an opportunity moves through Salesforce, Notis creates a set of Asana subtasks that map to your deal stages. Your team sees the exact path forward without guessing.

Trigger

New or Updated Opportunity

Triggers when a Salesforce Opportunity is created or updated.

Action

Create subtask

Creates a new asana subtask under an existing parent task (`task gid`); `due on` and `due at` are mutually exclusive and cannot be set simultaneously.

Why this helps

Opportunities in Salesforce are amorphous. Your team knows a deal exists but has no clarity on what actions it requires right now, leading to missed steps and stalled deals.

  • Opportunity stages translate into concrete subtasks
  • Team knows exactly what work each deal requires
  • Missed opportunity steps become impossible
  • Deal velocity improves when actions are explicit

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Salesforce and Asana to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'When an opportunity is created or updated, generate subtasks based on the opportunity stage, with titles like "Discovery call", "Proposal", "Negotiation", etc.'
  • 3Choose the New or Updated Opportunity trigger and your notification channel.
  • 4Test with a real opportunity, verify subtasks appear, and refine the stage-to-subtask mapping as needed.

Questions about this workflow

What if we have custom opportunity stages?

Tell Notis your stages in the automation prompt. It will map each stage to a corresponding subtask template.

Can we update subtasks if the opportunity stage changes?

Yes. Your prompt can include logic like 'if opportunity moved to Negotiation, mark Discovery subtasks complete and activate Negotiation subtasks'.

Will this create duplicate subtasks?

Notis will avoid duplicates if you mention it in the prompt, e.g., 'only create subtasks if they don't already exist for this opportunity'.
