We created a New Task called Create PDF.co and Asana Integration Tutorial in our Asana project. We will use this New Task name to fill the fillable PDF Form using the PDF Filler in PDF.co.

For this demonstration, we will use the New Task in Project as the Trigger. This means that the Zap will run every time it finds a New Task in the Project.

There are other Triggers available for Asana. You can check them out here.
