Asana Integration & Workflow Automation
Run Asana on autopilot. Keep the veto.
153 actions6 triggers
A task moves to a section and your Asana automation fires off deletions and user access changes before you've read the context. Rills proposes each action and waits for your call.
Interactive. No signup. 14 days free · approvals always free.
Most automation fires first, asks later. Rills shows you the change before it ships.
Every consequential project management action from Asana arrives on your phone first. Approve in seconds. Decline without explaining yourself. Workflows wait, paused at zero cost, until you decide.

3 tasks moved to 'Ready to Onboard' in past 2h
Same pattern as last Monday's client intake batch
2 users have no prior workspace membership
Free to wait. Free to think.
Approvals and logic don't cost a credit. Pause a workflow for three hours or three weeks. The price is the same: zero. You only pay when something real happens: an AI call, an outbound action.
Approve from your phone in five seconds.
Swipe right when you're sure. Decline when you're not. Between meetings, mid-coffee, on the train. No dashboard to babysit, no inbox triage, no 3am stomach-drop wondering what shipped while you slept.
Routine cases graduate themselves.
Every approval feeds a confidence score for that exact workflow shape. The obvious cases (the ones you've green-lit fifty times) start running on their own. The judgment calls still come to you.
About Asana automation
Project management automation has a specific failure mode: a section move or a comment hits an action you wired up months ago, and by the time you notice, a task is gone, a user has workspace access they shouldn't have yet, or a full project structure has spun up off a test entry.
When Asana runs unsupervised
Asana automation wired directly to events ships changes before you've read the context. A tag fires a cleanup. A comment triggers an access change. A section move hits logic you wrote six weeks ago and forgot about.
- ASANA_TASK_CREATED fires a create project for team action, spinning up a full project structure before anyone confirms the triggering task wasn't a duplicate or a test.
- ASANA_TASK_COMMENT_ADDED interprets a comment as an onboarding signal and runs add user for workspace, granting permissions before the context is clear.
- ASANA_TASK_UPDATED hits deletion logic and removes a task before anyone confirms the status change was intentional.
- ASANA_TASK_TAG_ADDED runs an update allocation action that reassigns resources mid-project because a contractor tag looked like an offboarding signal.
What Rills does inside Asana
Rills connects to Asana automation triggers and surfaces proposed actions as cards in your approval queue before anything executes. Whether that's a delete a task call triggered by a status update, an add user for workspace call triggered by a comment, or a create project triggered by a new task, nothing goes out until you approve Asana changes on your own terms.
The task still gets deleted, the user still gets added; you just see it before it goes out.
When Asana events should and shouldn't act on their own
Not every Asana event carries the same risk. Some repeat reliably enough that confidence builds fast; others involve membership, deletion, or project structure and should wait for a human every time.
- ASANA_TASK_TAG_ADDED: low-stakes tagging patterns repeat consistently and can graduate to autonomous once enough confirmed examples exist.
- ASANA_TASK_MOVED_TO_SECTION: section moves in a stable, well-defined project management workflow are predictable enough to act on without review after a few confirmed cycles.
- ASANA_TASK_ATTACHMENT_ADDED: attaching a file rarely has downstream consequences on its own, making it a reasonable candidate for autonomous handling.
- ASANA_TASK_CREATED: creation events vary too much in context; a test task and a real client task look identical, so these should always wait for your call.
- ASANA_TASK_COMMENT_ADDED: comments are the least structured input in any project management tool; acting on them autonomously is how you end up with workspace access changes you never meant to approve.
What wakes Rills up in Asana
When these events fire, Rills proposes the next move and waits for your call.
ASANA TASK CREATED
Fires when a new task is created in a project. Use this to automatically start related workflows or notify stakeholders about new work assignments.
ASANA TASK MOVED TO SECTION
Fires when a task moves to a different section or status in a project. Use this to monitor workflow progress or trigger actions based on status changes.
ASANA TASK UPDATED
Fires when a task's details change, including name, description, due date, or assignee. Use this to keep other systems in sync or alert team members of important task modifications.
