Automations- when you notify someone you are ready for them to work on their task, it would be great if you could sign a due date at that time

On one of my boards, I use an intake form whenever we create a new training event. We have functional teams who create CEs or communications related to this event, so I create a task in their boards (through automation) as soon as the event is created in the form. I do this, so they can plan upcoming work. However, they will need to wait until I am at a certain point with event management to start their work on that specific item. Today, I trigger a notification when that status change occurs. If I could BOTH notify that user AND set a due date on the pre-existing task on their board, that would be awesome.

Hi @jpostich - When you create the task on thier board (via automation), if you set a connection between the two boards you could mirror a Due Date from the source board to the user board. If mirroring isn’t an option, you could also create a quick make.com scenario or utilize a 3rd party app to copy the value from a mirror column to a local column (we like to use Column Magic for this if make.com isnt an option).

The key is there needs to be connection between them, then you have some options :slight_smile:

Hope this helps!
