[From Wrike] Automation: Use System Fields as Triggers & Change Custom Field Value ๐
ๅบๅฎใใใๆ็จฟ ๆณจ็ฎใฎๆ็จฟ
Hi Community!
We are delighted to bring you some major updates on Automation! ๐ย
New System Field Triggers ๐
The list of available triggers just got (much) bigger, including the following options: Start and Due date, Assignee, Duration, Importance, Name (Title), and Descriptionย ๐ฅ
You can also determine when to action the triggers: if a value has been added, removed or changed ๐ค Combined with the option to add conditions, the new possibilities opened by these enhancements are a total game-changer!ย
Also, more fields are to be added in the future, we will share the updates with you soon ๐
New Action to Change a Custom Field Value ๐
Triggers are not the only update we have! We added a new action to automation: โChange custom fieldโ! It will allow you to automatically change the value of a specific custom field. This way, you can now remove, change or add a specific value for the custom field, depending on the relevant trigger and conditions.ย
At the moment, the option is available for checkbox custom fields, but more types will be included among the options in the near future. Stay tuned for the updates, we know that many of you have been supporting this suggestion ๐
Please, feel free to share your use cases with us and let us know how youโd like to apply these new triggers and actions! If you have any specific questions, we are here to help ๐
Looking forward to your comments and feedback! ๐

These are great additions!ย ย
For the "change custom fields" action, as new field types are added it would be GREAT to be able to change a date field to a few different options:
We have a lot of cases where tasks or projects go into a hold state for a period of time.ย When the task/project returns to Active status, we have to manually update a date field to track a new completion date, allowing us to track when the task/project was originally due and then the new, revised due date.ย Having the ability to automate this task would be a huge time saver!
Hi Chris Cashon, thank you very much for your feedback! I can clearly see the value of your suggestion and I have passed your comments to our Product Development Team ๐
