Create Automation Templates
M
Mitchel Roe
This applies to the "Automations Manager" and "Ability to copy existing automations".
I would like to be able to create an automation as a template and update that template like I would update a task template. I would like to be able to apply that automation template to any new list through an option within the automations manager "Apply template to selected lists" and have the option of selecting all the lists that automation should apply to.
Likely we would need a 'check for duplicate' automations if this were to be available as a mass application of automations to multiple lists.
Open to hearing how others would use this, but I'm specifically using it to field product-related requests for a software company's intake process.
We have 4 stakeholder groups that need to follow the same process to get their needs met. They all make inputs into my process, but I don't want to require them to work in my space; rather I am using automations to transfer information between spaces as needed.

Make it so I can create an automation and then "paste" it into multiple Spaces/Folders/Lists.
Also make it so that if I edit the master automation, it automatically updates the automation for all instances of the automation. Having to update an edited automation across every space, folder, and list where the automation occurs is time-consuming.

I want the ability to import/export Automations to another cloud site.

Import/export is a great way to think about it! The main ask is reusable automation templates. Merging these so we can see total demand - thanks for sharing!

We manage client projects as separate workspaces/lists but need to maintain automations consistently across many lists within each client project. Without the ability to copy automations to multiple places or add from a bank of custom automations, this process is really tedious and can't be updated easily from a central location.

Due to our large client base, we have 100's of automations. I'm currently in the need of identifying a certain group of automations but w/out the ability to export them, it's a manual and timely process. The ability to export our automations would extremely helpful to our work flow.

It would be great to have this ability. Since I have to manage over 20 spaces, folder and list. And I need to create different automation at the space, folder and list level. So it would be great to be able to create a template to be applicable across the different spaces, folder and list.

I Would like to go further and add automations to a task. This task has a template and several subtasks, etc. These trigger a workflow.

Add Automations to All Spaces + Automation Templates

Would love to ability to create automation templates which can then my assigned to multiple spaces as once.
We are a startup still in the process of refining our project management processes, and sometimes need to tweak or add new automations. Having to do this for every space manually is very time consuming. The template feature has been very helpful, and being able to do this for automations would be great.

Save Automations as Templates
Eva Wellensiek
For some Boards (in various workspaces) we use the same automations (most used example: If Task has status ASDF, assign Person XY.). It would be awesome if you could save one or multiple automations as a template.
