Microsoft Power Automate is an automation tool that allow you to integrate applications. In this example, we will walk through how to create new tasks in Asana when an initiative is added in ClearPoint.


Using ClearPoint and Microsoft Power Automate

  • Open Microsoft Power Automate

  • Click Create in the left hand menu

  • Select Instant Flow

  • Enter a Flow name

  • Select When an HTTP request is received as the flow trigger

  • Click Create to add the Flow

  • Click on When an HTTP request is received to make the menu expand

  • Paste this JSON code into the Request Body JSON box

  • Click New Step

  • To the right of the Headers, enter the Access Key and Secret Key by pasting the values from the API Keys in ClearPoint.

  • This step will help retrieve information about your Initiative from ClearPoint

  • Please visit our Help Center article on Getting API Keys for more information.

  • Click Add an Action

  • Select Asana

  • Connect to your Asana account

  • For Task name, select name from the list

  • This will pull the Initiative name from ClearPoint

  • Click Save to save your flow

  • Once saved, go back to the first tile

  • The URL for the HTTP POST will be generated

  • Copy the URL

The following steps will help you create a Webhook in ClearPoint

Start by logging into ClearPoint Strategy at app.clearpointstrategy.com/#/home

  • From the Control Panel select System Settings

  • Select System Setup

  • You will find Integrations under Enterprise Features

  • Navigate to the Webhooks tab

  • Click on the Plus icon to add a new Webhook

  • Under Name, enter the name of the new Webhook, in this example, ‘Asana Webhook’.

  • In the URL field, paste in the Custom Webhook URL that you copied from in the previous steps.

  • Under Options, select to Fire on Scorecard Changes

  • Use the dropdown menu to select the Scorecard you want to integrate with Asana

  • Select the Type of change, in this example, ‘Add’.

  • Once you are done, click Save

When a new initiative is added to the Integrations scorecard, a new task with the same name will be created in the selected Asana board!

As a reminder, this is just one example of how ClearPoint can be configured with other applications for custom integrations.
