Notion Comments Alert Your Asana Team
When someone comments on a Notion page, Notis adds relevant team members as followers to the matching Asana task, ensuring they're notified of ongoing collaboration.
Trigger
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.
Action
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.
Why this helps
Collaboration scattered across Notion comments and Asana discussions means team members miss context and have to hunt for updates. Important decisions made in comments often go unnoticed by stakeholders who check Asana.
- Notify team members of Notion discussions via Asana followers
- Ensure stakeholders stay in the loop across both tools
- Reduce missed collaboration and decisions
- Keep distributed teams aligned automatically
- Avoid duplicate comment threads in separate tools
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect both integrations in Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'Notion comments to Asana task followers'.
- 3In your prompt, specify: 'When a new comment is added to a Notion page, add the comment author as a follower to the matching Asana task to notify them.'
- 4Select 'Comment Created' as the trigger.
- 5Test by commenting on a Notion page and watch the team get notified in Asana.
Questions about this workflow
Will this add every commenter as a follower automatically?
Yes, by default. But you can be more selective: 'Only add the page author or team leads as followers' to avoid notification overload.
What if someone who commented in Notion isn't in the Asana workspace?
Notis will skip them. Only users who exist in both Notion and Asana will be added as followers.
Can I customize who gets added based on comment content?
Yes. Use your prompt: 'If a comment mentions @urgent or contains a deadline, add all project members as followers.' Notis can filter based on keywords or mentions.

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.
