Conditional Subtasks and Subprojects in Request Forms

Table 31. Availability - Legacy plans


Overview

Account admins and owners can manage account-level request forms. Space admins can manage request forms in their spaces.

You can create dynamic request forms that include different questions and change the attributes of the task or project they create based on the answers given.

Add a subtask or subproject to the task or project created by a request form when a specific Single answer or multiple answers option is selected.

Add conditional subtasks and subprojects in request forms

  1. Navigate to the request form builder for the relevant form.

  2. Add a Single answer or Multiple answers question.

  3. Add all the necessary response options.

  4. Click the branching icon Request_Forms-Branching_icon.png to the right of one of the options.

  5. Select Add subtask or Add subproject from the drop-down.

  6. In the pop-up that opens:

    • Select one of the tabs at the top to choose Task/Project type (creates from a custom item type), Blueprints, or Existing tasks/projects.

    • Find the relevant item and click on it.

  7. Click + and add more subtasks/subprojects, if required.

Note

There's an overall limit of 250 items that can be simultaneously added to a single submitted form. Items include tasks, projects, and any subtasks and subprojects that live within them.

Every subproject is duplicated individually, and the dependencies are kept only within each subproject. Cross-blueprint dependencies can not be preserved when submitting the form with conditional questions.

Such dependencies remain, however, if the whole blueprint with all the subprojects is duplicated at once when the form is submitted.

Click the Add action button to add other conditional branching actions to the same answer option, if necessary (i.e., creating an approval). When you’re finished making changes to your form, click Publish or Save.
