Has anyone set up an automation when a task is marked complete, the following task is automatically changed to in progress?

Hi @JSanto16,

 

In this case I would say you have two options, also I did not develop this it is just an idea so you can decide which one you prefer more.

 

One way to do this is to search for the task that is the successor and is part of the same project using the following Search.png

so you can get the project ID from the completed task and also get the task number (as in order of the task in the project) and increment by one to fetch the next one.

 

Other approach is directly fetching all of the project tasks based on the project ID and then finding the next task also based on the task number or even just taking the next array element based on the position of the current task.

 

Hopefully this helps. Please let me know if there is anything else you need.

 

Best regards,
Ivan Bebek
