Adding conditional statement to the Delayed Status change

Hi, I would like to know if anyone has found a way to have a delayed status change only if the status of a certain column is something.

Right now I have the automation:
When Emergency level changes to Minor wait for 15 days to change Emergency level to Medium.

I would like it to be:
When Emergency level changes to Minor wait for 15 days to change Emergency level to Medium, if Status is Ongoing

I am using the third party app: Delayed status change because I couldn’t figure out a way to do this directly with Monday. Will this be possible to achieve ?

Hi @lou.es

The app has a mode where it does NOT change the status (after the time has passed) when the value of the status is already changed (e.g. manually). If that helps, let me know your monday account Url so I can add your account to this app’s behavior.

Hi @lou.es!

A workaround can be having a date column ‘Next Emergency Level Date’. Add the following automation recipes:

  1. When Emergency Level changes to Minor, set Next Emergency Level Date to today and push Next Emergency Level Date to 15 days.
  2. When Next Emergency Level Date arrives, and only if Status is ongoing, change Emergency Level to Medium.

Let us know how it goes!
