A rule has three parts: when it fires, under which conditions, and what it does.
When it fires
- When a task is created
- When the status changes (to a specific status)
- When a task is moved into a given section
- When the due date is N days away
Conditions
You can filter by priority, status, assignee or section. With several conditions, all of them must match. With no conditions the rule always runs.
What it can do
- Assign someone
- Set the priority
- Change the status
- Move it to another section
- Add a watcher
- Set the due date N days out
- Post a comment
- Create a subtask
Example: “When an urgent task is created — add the team lead as a watcher and post a comment.”
