I try to add a button that creates cards from a checklist, I found a list of variables (https://help.trello.com/article/1157-variables) and learned that I use checklistitemname for the name of the task and use checklistitemstate for the state. Works fine. Now how can I keep the set item date and the assigned item member? As the value is there I hope it can be reached to get set on the new card.
@Torsten Berger hi there! I don't have a good answer for you - just that I know this is a struggle! It seems weird, because you can set the member and due date as Butler actions, but from what I can tell, you can't use it as a trigger and there's not a variable to reference those pieces.
Hoping @milynnus maybe has an idea?

I have not validated the following:

@milynnus& @Brittany Joiner Thanks!
No, that is a dead end. I thought first it shoud keep this information by default (as members and dates are both valid attributes of checklist items and cards, so why would they dissapear when you change a checklist item into a crad?). But they are not transfered automatically.
I used the cascade feature, first I use "for each checklist item" and then:
As you see, I have a free text field for the "Card title" where I use {checklistitemname} (that works fine) but the other fields are just dropdowns (with a selection of all board members). I tried to set a guessed variable there but it just ignores it. I hoped somehow it might work with the right variable name, but can't figure it out.
My test now: If I use your variables in the title field (like "x_{newcardduedate}_x" they come back empty (like "x__x"). If I test checklistitemfirstmemberusername and checklistitemcardduedate they are also empty.
:-/
So again no solution. A nice feature, but if I loose information in the process it is unfortunately useless for us.
