Hi,

First of all, I'm sorry if this question has been asked before.

 

I want to know if we can set multiple triggers for one Zap?

 

Here's the flow of my current Zap:

ptrigger] New row created in Google Sheets --> Create new task in Asana

 

Here's what I want to achieve:

 

I know i can set up 2 Zaps, however by doing so, I'll won't be able to use data from the Google Sheets.

 

Thanks!

We need something that will allow us to get your google sheet row number to the second zap.

Some ideas…

  • Create a column in the google sheet that you could update in Zap #1 and search for in Zap #2
  • Write the google row number into a field in Asana so you will get the row number in Zap #2 when the Asana task is created

I have the two options mixed in here in Zap #1 and Zap #2, but you will get the idea.

 

Zap #1

>trigger] New row created in Google Sheets

>Action] Create new task in Asana - This is where you could add the google row # to the Asana task

>Action] Google Sheet - Update Row - This is where you could set a value in the new column and find it later in Zap #2

>Action] Send email on Gmail

 

Zap #2

ptrigger] When the Asana task is completed - Option 1 - Your google sheet row is on the Asana record

pAction] Google Sheet - Find Row - Search using either the row # passed from the Asana task, or search on the  value that you saved from Zap #1

/Action] Reply the Gmail thread

Thank you for your response.
I think Zap #2 row is set to search for only the specified row, is there any other way?
How do I recognize the content generated in Zap #1 as the same data in Zap #2 by any chance?
ex) If multiple data are entered at once in a short period (Zap #1)

Hi @joel2024 

Give these Zaps and steps a try…

 

Zap 1

  1. Trigger: GSheets - New Row
  2. Action: Asana - Create Task
  3. Action: Gmail - Send Email
  4. Action: GSheets - Update Row
    1. Add these values to columns to reference in Zap 2
      1. Asana Task ID
      2. Gmail Thread ID

 

Zap 2

  1. Trigger: Asana - Completed Task
  2. Action: GSheets - Lookup Row
    1. Search for the Asana Task ID
  3. Action: Gmail - Replay to Email

@joel2024

You would search for the row based on the Asana Task ID by using a dynamic variable.
