New Project Assignment Notification

When a new project is created without task owners, nobody gets notified.  Since we can only make project assignments, not task assignments within a project from a Request Form, a new project can go unnoticed.  Could you create a notification to the project owner when a new project is assigned?

I made a similar request as not even tasks in a project template can trigger e-mails

I am seeing the same issues. If you do not have Wrike open you are not alerted to a new project or task being added. I need to constantly review the Wrike inbox to ensure we are on top of projects coming in.

Hi all, thanks for your input here.
 
I think the new auto-assign based on status might be helpful here. It allows you to automatically assign people based on a task's Status, meaning that you can auto-assign the Project owner(s) on every 'New' status task that's created. Please note, auto-assignment isn't ideal for this use case if you're duplicating a Project or creating a Project via a Request form. 
 
Looking forward to reading your feedback on this 👍

We are looking for the same functionality.  When our users submit a Request Form, a project is auto-created but nobody is notified and can go unnoticed unless someone is constantly checking the inbound folder.  Would like to see auto-notification to the project owner upon creation from a Request form. 

Thanks for your review

Would like to see this as well. We just started using request forms. Someone submitted one internally and it went unnoticed for a few days 😔

Since this request was raised 5 years ago, I noticed now there's still no notification to the owner when a new project is created.

Is this function built yet?

Hi Joyce Lam, welcome to the Community 👋

I hope you don't mind me asking a couple of questions to make sure I understand you correctly. Could you tell me if you're talking about assigning a new project owner? Do you mean Inbox or email notifications? Do you mean creating a new project after submitting a request form? Thanks!

Hi Lisa I mean the inbox or email notification to the project owner if a new project is launched after submitting a request form.

Thanks

Hi Joyce Lam, the Project Owner should receive an Inbox notification upon the submission of the Request Form.

If you have chosen to create a project from the Blueprint or template (existing project) and there are no assignees selected in the Request form settings, no Inbox notification would be sent to the Project Owners (to prevent the notifications overflow for the assignees). Please let me know if it works 🙋🏻‍♀️

Understand the setup, however since we cannot assign user groups, it wouldn't make sense for us to assign a specific person on the blueprint.

Regardless I have set up an automation rule at the moment for a workaround, it will be great if the function will be there, as without it's more likely new projects are created unnoticed.

Thanks
