Hello fam,
I have a very mundane report automation need.
I'd like to create a daily email report. The report should include all the checklist items that have an overdue due date.
The way I use Trello is that one card has many different tasks with different due dates set.
Thanks for your help!
Ivan

@Ivan hi there! Hmm, so it might be a little tricky to do that because i don't think there's a ton of automation tied to the checklist item dates. Tbh i try to avoid using those advanced checklists for those reasons haha, instead if i want a checklist item, I'll usually created a link card checklist item and then keep those in sync, because there's a lot more automation with those cards! (See an example of how I do it here: https://youtu.be/IMaZ3tso914 )
So for instance, you can set that up, and then create a report that every day sends you a report of cards due today, or overdue cards. You could use a rule like this if you're working with cards:

I'm curious if you were aware that blue cat has this feature? They might be a helpful addition for your team.

@Ivan i wasn't aware! but i don't really use checklist items with members and due dates in my workflows so it's not something I've really researched much

How is it that we STILL can't run reports on checklist item due dates?
I've tried blue cat and wasn't able to implement it successfully - consistently - it would spin forever before becoming available.
but i'm trying to create a daily report on items in a checklist that HAS a due date - and it's impossible. #featurerequest
I know this is 2 years old but still, should have this functionality by now.
