I am using the Checklist for Monday by Monday. My question, how do I setup an automation/workflow/integration that will notify a checklist item assignee that they have been assigned a checklist item? It seems to be a pretty basic function, but I cannot find any info on how to do this. Any help would be appreciated.
Hello @david.lowe
his is a known limitation.
Checklist item assignees inside Checklist for Monday aren’t treated like a native People column, so standard monday.com automations can’t trigger a notification when someone is assigned a checklist item.
Best options:
-
Assign the person in a People column on the item and use a normal “notify when assigned” automation
-
Check the Checklist app widget settings to see if it has its own built in notifications
-
If you need notifications reliably, consider using subitems instead of checklist items since subitems support native assignees and automations

Thanks Tabvi, Yeah, seems a bit odd that this kind of thing is not native. Thanks for the help.
