Send email if checklist item is not completed by due date

[John K]

If I task someone with a checklist and some due dates, I'd like to be able to get a reminder email if a checklist item was not completed by the due date.

I don't see a way to trigger off that with Automation rules .... but i feel like i may be missing something.

As a workaround I could do something hacky like set the card due date to the next checklist item due date, or maybe make my OWN secondary checklist with tasks like "Check if the primary checklist item was completed" but that seems, wonky.  Am I missing something?  Thanks!

There is no trigger for checklist item due that you can use with Trello automation. But you will receive a notification email.

Big thanks.   And what a shame, hopefully they will implement that at some point.

Has there been any movement on adding a reminder feature for tasks that have due dates? If a task with a due date isn't marked as "completed" by the deadline it would be helpful to be able set up an automatic reminder.
