We set up an automation to Notify if status changes.
The custom notification message looks like this atm:
{item’s name}
Hi, task {subitem’s Name} has been assigned to you.
Please complete it by {subitem’s Due Date}.
Since our item names and subitem names are very long, we would like to show only the left 15 characters of the “item name” or “subitem name” in the notification message.
I tried this:
{LEFT({item’s name}, 15)}
Hi, task {subitem’s Name} has been assigned to you.
Please complete it by {subitem’s Due Date}.
but it gives me a syntax error.
We also tried - {LEFT(“{item’s name}”, 15)} - but get the same error.
What is the correct syntax for applying formulas to fields inside the notification message box?
Thanks for your help in advance.
