How can I assign a checklist to more than one person?

Hi @shivkrathi, welcome to the community!

Based on the documentation, I believe that's not possible. Since you're assigning the task to someone, it's the best practice to have only one person accountable for that item. The workaround will be creating a separate checklist item if that's the case.

"Why can’t I assign more than one person to a checklist item? You can only assign one person to an advanced checklist item. Advanced checklists are more about accountability and finer granularity. If multiple people are assigned, there’s less accountability and more confusion about who’s supposed to be doing what. If more than one person need to do a particular task we suggest creating separate checklist items for each individual. That way, every person will see the task in ‘Your Items’ and can mark their contributions complete when they’re done!"

I hope that answers your question.

The advanced checklist limits you to one person per item.
