@Leanne Lam adding on to this - you should be able to set the start date automatically using automation rules without having to click a button. Try something like

"when a card is added to the board, set start date now"

You could filter this further if you wanted to only apply this to certain cards. e.g.

when a card is added to x list...
when the x label is added to the card...
when the due date is set on a card...

Hi Leanne,


I couldn't find one, but it is possible to make a simple 'Card Button' Automation. It gives each new card you create a button (in the same column as all the other options on the right side) that sets the card to Today with one click.
