Can I make an automation using a trigger from a different project?

For context here, our team uses 2 different projects for two different teams. However, certain actions from team 1 need to trigger a separate action from team 2, so I’d like to be able to automate a notification that will do that. For example, if a specific task is marked complete on project 1, it should trigger a comment tagging a certain team member on project 2. Is this possible?

Welcome, @kmal,

Generally, rules operate on the same task that triggers them.

So if that’s the case (which must mean the task is multi-homed in both projects), then your answer is yes.

If not, then native Asana rules wouldn’t handle that.

Thanks,

Larry

Thank you, @lpb - I used to work in Trello with automations that were linked between many boards in many different ways, so this is a very different environment. I’d love to see this changed to be more like Trello in that respect. Thanks!
