Release 149, Date-based Automation

Released 9 February 2026

We have added six new date-based automation triggers which open up many more automation possibilities. The new triggers are:

Here are some examples of new rules you can create:

Actively monitor overdue tasks - If a high priority task was due yesterday but isn't complete yet, log a risk in the RAID log and notify the project manager.
Prompt assignees if they're falling behind - If a task is due in two days but is less than half done, increase the priority and contact the assignees.
Be more prepared for important work - If a high priority task starts tomorrow, notify the assignee so they can get prepared.
Smart dependency notifications - If a task is due tomorrow, notify the assignees of linked tasks so they know they'll be starting soon.
