Send Asana New Task Alerts to Google Chat (Course Tech Support)

Introduction

Turn every new Asana task into a clear Google Chat alert so your course technology team sees issues instantly and takes action faster. ✅

Trigger Event

A new task is created in your selected Asana project (e.g., “Course Technology Requests”).

Actions

  • The workflow fetches the task’s details from Asana so the alert includes the right context (task name, status, due date, assignee, section, URL, and notes).
  • Smart safeguards help reduce noise:
    • If the task isn’t assigned, the automation can stop to avoid sending incomplete requests.
    • If there are no comments yet, it can pause to prevent empty messages.
  • A rich Google Chat card is posted to your chosen space via webhook. The card includes:
    • A clear title (e.g., “A course technology request was submitted.”)
    • A subtitle with the task name
    • The task notes/description as the message body
    • Optional buttons (e.g., “Open in Asana”) linking to the task URL

Benefits

  • Faster response: new requests appear in Chat in seconds
  • Less context switching: key task info is right in the message
  • Fewer false alerts: skip unassigned or empty requests
  • Better team visibility: everyone in the space sees the same update
  • Easy setup: select your Asana project and paste a Google Chat webhook URL
