Workfront Boards event triggers

Are there any Boards based watch events for Fusion? I am looking for the ability to trigger based on a new card being added to a board or a card moving into a specific column on a board.   Also, has anyone been able to add a connected card to a board via API?

I don't believe there are any watch event modules yet. Because boards is an early access feature there isn't even any api documentation yet and I don't have a month to go through support tickets just for them to eventually fully release boards. I believe that the boards feature is lackluster and clunky for automation as it stands right now. I have been able to provide my team with a semi-functioning automation using the status change columns + intake but many times have I had to deny them new feature requests due to the terrible implementation that boards is currently in.

    I feel your pain. I just did the same - rigging up an event trigger based on status - but yeah, clunky is right. I have managed to at least set up a system to sync tags across multiple boards, but it was not straightforward.

        Somewhat. I was able to create a "transient status" on the first column that cards are moved into from the intake column. Since that changes the status on the issue itself, I can trigger based on that status change. It's not really a board event trigger, but more of an issue event trigger. It is working for that I need right now, but I would really love to see more event triggers based on actual board events. I have set up a set of Fusion scenarios that keeps tags in sync across cards on multiple boards. For now, all of my triggers are based on the issues themselves, instead of the activity on each board. Not being able to get the ID of which board the activity happened on means that I need to check all of them and that is inefficient. I am looking forward to being able to clean things up and make them more efficient once board events are available.

        Incidentally, the tag sync set up that I have created also allows tags to be displayed on reports and views outside of Boards. There are a couple of things that would allow my set up to be quickly and easily portable to other queue projects, so I am hopeful that functionality is available in future releases very soon!
