Not all custom fields can be prefilled

When working with automations and Custom fields, you can select to fill "Text Custom Fields" with data you allready have.
Doesn´t work with other custom fields, like phone Number, etc.

Tim Brettschneider If we allow you to fill in Email, Phone, Website with other Email, Phone, Website custom fields, would this help you?
We would be able to get that out much faster than if you were expecting ANY value to be added. Let me explain:

Zach - ClickUp: Thanks for this video
So you can first add the phone to the phone, and email to email, field just to can take over this info to the Tigard tasks, subtasks, emails, via automations
And after the work to can add also text fields to emails, websites, and phone numbers,
And abut the dropdowns,
you can make it just like the date field's
Thanks in advance for your work
looking froward to see this futures in ClickUp son

Zach - ClickUp: Hey Zach! Thanks for the loom Video.
I think its important to keep data consistent.
So prefilling Email field with Email Data, Phone field with Phone Data, etc. would be really helpfull.
Actually its what we would need right now.
So we do have the customer Data in the task, when it goes to the state "needs more info" that an automation creates a new task for the support team with the phone-number of the first task.

Hi Dmitri Limonov,
I have checked with Automated Action of "Create a Task" and the custom field such as Email, phone no. are unable to choose fill from existing data of the task. Look at the screenshot, only "Text" field are able to add existing data from a task. Additionally i think this should be standard for automation such as "Move to list" or "Add to list".
