Tasks created by Google Forms

One quick solution exists. If the tasks are created in a specific project, you can open the Project Members & Privacy, and check that your users is set to receive notifications on new tasks creation. In that way you should be notified in your Inbox in Asana.

This doesn’t work, because with the integration you’re technically the one creating the task and I have a few integrations set up based on forms/etc. and I do have project notifications all on and don’t get them. I had to set a reminder task for me to check those projects.

I’m not familiar with the flat google forms integration (as I use Zapier for that), but is there not a way to default assign tasks to someone?

If that doesn’t work, I suggest creating a reminder task for you to check the applications project daily (or whenever).

And if you don’t want to do that, this was suggested recently and I thought it was a good work around for issues like this (if you can do it):

Creating a "Zapier bot" in Asana

Pretty neat! I ran into this issue with a particular workflow using email forwarding and realized that I wouldn’t get notifications that a task was created in a project because I was the one technically creating it! Foiled! Anyway, interesting and fun to play with if you have an open space! =)
