I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to create a workflow that needs to constantly get zapier related task updates. The Zap will send the entire record and unfortunately, it seems Asana treats the new information as a change to every field that has information.
I want an update from NULL to a date to trigger an action like creating a task, but I don’t want a task triggered when it updates from DateX to DateX.
I was hoping to use a number field that I could inspect based on the stage of the task so that it wouldn’t repeat things that it already did. I don’t see the # custom fields showing up as fields you can do rules based on the number < x.
Right now, i am creating a custom status field for every field and checking if it is blank before doing the action and then updating the custom field to YES so it doesn’t repeat.
Also a text field has up to 4 different letters in it. It would be wonderful to have a rule inspect the text field and do things based on the value. Right now i have it create a task for me to manually inspect it and multihome it for each letter it has.
Any suggestions much appreciated.
Thanks!
Anyone else have experience with Zap updates helping the workflow?
