Changing start date of a card to a date from another card in another list when changed

Mahmoud Bahr

Hello,

I have a board where the lists are project stages. I want that when a “completion date” date custom field is updated on a card in a list called “client’s approval”, the start date of the card with the same name in a list called “second visit” to be adjusted to the trigger card “completion date”

 

appreciate your help.

Hi @Mahmoud Bahr 

This one is annoyingly cumbersome and you'd need to have a custom field on the second card to bridge it...then 2 automations.  I'll call it start date for this example:

1

When the custom field "completion date" is set on a card in list "clients approval" find a card with a name starting with "{triggercardname}" in list "second visit" and set custom field "start date" to {customfieldvalue}

2

When the custom field "start date" is set in a card in list "second visit", set the start date to the date in custom field "start date"
