I'm trying to simplify my team's automation list a bit, and I'm looking at the "assigned to me" option in triggers and wondering:

Is "me" always referring to the person who created the automation?

Or is there some other definition - such as the person who enabled it on this board?

Hi @Sarah Ammerman 

"Me" always refers to the member who created the automation rule, not whoever enabled it on the board, and not the board admin.

Thanks for the clarification, @Ajay _view26_! I had wondered about this as well, especially for boards with multiple admins. This makes the behavior much clearer.
