Create Asana Onboarding Tasks for New Telegram Members
A new team member joins your Telegram group and Notis creates an onboarding task in Asana with all the setup steps they need to complete.
Trigger
New Chat Member
Triggered when a new member joins a group or supergroup the bot belongs to, including when the bot itself is added.
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
You add people to the Telegram group but forget to create onboarding tasks or they get missed. New people are confused about setup and you handle ad-hoc questions instead of structured onboarding.
- Onboarding tasks created automatically for each new member
- Consistent setup across all team members
- Reduces ad-hoc help and confusion
- Clear visibility into who's been onboarded
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Asana to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a new member joins my Telegram group, create an onboarding task in Asana with all setup steps.'
- 3Set your trigger to 'New Chat Member'.
- 4Define your onboarding template: tools to set up, docs to read, intro calls, etc.
- 5Test by inviting someone to your Telegram group and verifying an onboarding task appears in Asana with subtasks for each step.
Questions about this workflow
Can different team members get different onboarding tasks?
Yes. Tag people by role in Telegram or Asana, and customize the onboarding based on their role (engineer, designer, manager, etc.).
Who gets assigned the onboarding task?
By default, the new member. You can also assign it to a manager or onboarding buddy for oversight.
What's in the onboarding template?
Whatever you need: account setup, tool access, documentation, intro calls, etc. Define your standard template and Notis runs it for each new member.
