Status change depending on the result of a formula

[ehudshem (Ehud)]

Is it possible according to the result of a formula to change the status of another column?
For example, if the result is Tru, change the status of the “Status” column to “Yes.”
Thanks in advance.

I don’t believe I see that in the options. But they have an upcoming webinar for automations… maybe you can ask there.

Oh actually it’s in the roadmap so it looks like they’re working on adding this feauture:

Include formula columns in automation recipes

We would love to ability to have a simple “if text contains” formula that could update a status column. For instance: if a text contains “ABC” then update status to “ABC”. This would help us use the color-coding that the status column offers to keep better track of our tasks. I realize this is a pretty simple feature request, but it would help us in many of our processes, especially as our boards grow and we rely more heavily on at-a-glance views of our boards.
