Can a butler automation be triggered off of assigning a checklist item?

Question

I see where this advanced checklist feature can be used in actions, and I see where setting a due date on a checklist item can trigger a flow, but what about when a checklist item is assigned to someone?

Use case: When a member is assigned to a checklist item on Board A, create a card on Board B (that member's personal To-Do List board)

I can see how to do all of this flow, with the exception of using the assignment as the trigger. I can only find that if the entire card it assigned to that member, not just the checklist item.

Thanks!

Hi Kelly!

I was having an issue with this too and I found a workaround that seems to work (except it doesn't copy the due date unfortunately).

Here's a link to my solution

Sadly.this is currently missing. It's a bit odd because there is an automation trigger for when a date is set on a checklist but not when a member is added. I recommend you contact Trello about this and see what their response is

By the way. If you are familiar, you can do this with either using the webhooks module (needs paid subscription) or make using it's Trello api call module...

Let me know if you're interested in how. It's a little more advanced...
