Generate tasks from selected text and add them to Asana, when I right-click

Context switching and app switching can be major productivity killers. It's easy to get derailed when we have to stop what we're doing and switch to a completely different task. However, there are times when we encounter things that we want to remind ourselves to do later. This can be especially challenging when we're in the middle of something else and don't want to lose our momentum.

This automation converts the selected text into a task, and creates a task in Asana with the content.

Let's set it up!

Step 1: Set up the automation

Click the “Try it” button at the top of this page to get this Playbook saved.

You will be redirected to download the browser extension when you run it for the first time. Bardeen will also prompt you to integrate Google Mail and Asana if you haven't done so previously.

Bardeen will then prompt you enter the Asana task list and the due date as well as assignee for the task. 

Step 2: Try it!

Press Option + B on Mac or Alt + B on a Window machine on your keyboard to launch Bardeen.

Run the playbook on selected text you want to save as action lists.

By utilizing automation tools such as this, you can significantly enhance your efficiency and effectiveness in your work. Instead of constantly diverting your attention from one task to another, you can maintain a concentrated focus on the task at hand while simultaneously capturing significant ideas and tasks for future reference. This will enable you to work more productively and ultimately achieve superior results with confidence.
