PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Mirror Asana Deadlock Chains onto a Monday Tracking Board
Detects deadlocked Asana dependency chains daily and creates or updates a row per chain on a Monday board, with status, owner, and downstream-blocked count for leadership…
How it runs
The automated pipeline, trigger to output.
- TriggerDaily schedule fires
- ActionPull dependency links across Asana projectsAsana
- LogicDetect deadlock chains and compute owner and blocked count
- ActionUpsert a Monday row per chain keyed by stable chain IDmonday.com
- OutputMove chains absent from today's scan to the Cleared groupmonday.com
What it does
This workflow turns invisible Asana deadlocks into a living Monday board that leadership actually watches. Each detected circular or long-stalled chain becomes a row with the cycle members, the assigned unblock owner, and how much work it is freezing, refreshed every day.
When to use it
Use it when engineering runs on Asana but program and exec reviews happen on Monday. It bridges the two so deadlocks show up where decisions get made, without anyone re-typing status.
How it works
- 1A daily schedule triggers the run.
- 2The workflow pulls dependency links across Asana projects.
- 3A logic step detects deadlock chains and computes each chain's downstream-blocked count and owner.
- 4For each chain it upserts a Monday row keyed by a stable chain ID, updating status and counts if the row already exists.
- 5Resolved chains absent from today's scan are moved to a "Cleared" group on the board.
