I use a Kanban board to manage files, and I want the system to automatically add the current date and time to a Trello card whenever it's moved from one list to another list. This timestamp should be visible on the card. The board functions as a check-in/check-out system, ensuring that no two people open the same file simultaneously. To do this, users compare the timestamp on the card in the "Bull Pen" list with the file's last saved date and time. If the timestamps don't match, they avoid opening the file.
Create a custom field, call it what you like... For my example I'll call it Timestamp
Then, use this automation:
when a card is added to list "[enter your list name here]", set the custom field Timestamp to {isodatetime}
When you move cards from one list to another list Trello already adds a timestamp for when that card was moved and by whom if you click on the card's "Show Details" button. Is that what you need?

Yes! Thank you so much! I saw the date, but not the time. I have to open the card to see the time, which is not optimal, but certainly workable. Thank you!
