Hi hopefully somone can assist - We are importing daily a spreadsheet and thats all fine - my request is how do I automate the assigning of the pule to a specific person based on another column value?
So it would go something like this
If Specific column = A assign to Person A
If specific column = B assisgn to Person B
Hi @Sam1
Donāt think that can be done āout of the boxā, but easy to build something for this. The prerequisite would always be that the person you want to assign the item to is subscribed on the board. Is that the case?
Iāve had success using the automation: When [Status] changes to [Status], Assign [User] as [Person]
The context is our budget approval board, which is populated by a form. One of the fields is to indicate which budget bucket the item should come out of (operations, digital marketing, field marketing, etc.). Based on the value of that status column, a different manager is assigned to the āapproverā people column.
Itās only tricky because I had to create an automation for each status value, but other than the initial setup, it works flawlessly.
Looks like your are looking for approvers / contributors. I have an app on the marketplace called Status Controlled Groups where you can switch ownerships between contributors and approvers by changing a status. The recipe is:
