Automating an Email Reminder
I'm trying to use Trello to track meeting minutes and action items from those meetings. I have it set and working for when I add an action item to a checklist in the minutes it creates a card in the "action items" list and the description of the new card will automatically mention the person who was @'d in the checklist. But from here I also want an email sent to that person as a reminder, and I believe the problem is getting that @'d person added as a member of the card. I've tried several iterations of commands using variables but I get the error message from Trello that they can't find that member, so no email is sent. I must be doing something wrong but I'm not sure what and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
