Dynamic fields in task titles
Aimee
Apologies if this has been asked already, I couldn't see it anywhere - we have monthly recurring tasks for about 60 lists. It would be amazing if we could have a dynamic field in the title of the tasks to represent the month. Eg. Monthly reporting [Month] (for the current month or Monthly reporting [Month -1] for the month prior, which would then display as Monthly reporting July, and so on. Thanks a bunch!

Hi team,
Would be great if we can create task names from form fields since it reduces a step where we need to manually create a naming convention for the task cards
Any updates on this?

I have a similar use case to Clifford Meyers below (merged by Brian Shen) and would like the task name to incorporate info from specified fields during a form submission.

This will be very useful for us too. currently, for all recurring tasks we have to amend the task name with the current month manually.

My use case is a recurring tasks to send invoices each month. I'd like the task to say "Send [Month] [Year] invoices" rather than just "Send invoices", where month is auto populated each month to be month + 1 for the next month

This could be great. I was just asking about this feature today. This would be a great help when it comes to recurring tasks as well.

A workaround that some may find does the trick for them would be to create an automation on the list where a task is created from a form submission:
- When task created > Create a new task using the appropriate dynamic tags available when that form submission task is created.
- Archive or delete the original form submission task.
You can use any value from a custom field in the new task title and include your own text too :)
