Hello!
When I create a new item, I see that I am automatically subscribed to that item and will get notified when there are updates to the item. Is there a way to also automatically add a specific team member to all new items created so that I don’t have to remember to add her each time?
She is currently a board member/owner of each board where these items live but that doesn’t seem to do the trick in her getting the notifications.
Thank you!
Hey @TheBox! To clarify, when you create an item, you will automatically be subscribed to that item. As you’ve come to notice, in order to stop receiving those notifications, you would need to manually unsubscribe yourself, and subscribe a new team member. I recognise this isn’t the most ideal process, and will certainly take your feedback on-board.

If you’d like to automatically assign a specific team member each time an item is created, you can create this via an automation.
Alternatively, you can also un-check the option in your notifications settings to be notified when you’re subscribed to a board, team or item.
Thank you! I think I found what I was looking for though. It does appear that once I make that team member a “board member” she gets all notifications when items are updated (assuming that box is checked)…so I think we’re good!
Hi Mark! Can you tell me how you sorted this out? I’ve subscribed my team member to the correct board, but this does not automatically subscribe them to each item on the board (this is what they want).
I still manually have to go in and subscribe them to each individual item as well, which is a pain.
I do not want to assign them to everything; only subscribe them to all the items on a particular board. (The automations Bianca mentioned only allow you to automate assigning and not subscribing). Hoping you can share how you hacked this!
I too am trying to solve for this problem.
Am wanting team members to be auto-subscribed to all updates to a task.
Currently am required to either @ them on every reply or manually subscribe them.
Is there a simpler method? Or is this a platform limitation?
