Auto Assign Project Owner to Tasks Using Owner ID

[Kiersten_K]

I am trying to have Fusion auto assign the Project Owner to tasks (we tagged them with role of Project Manager) by using the Project Owner ID for that project.

I have set up Search and Update modules for Tasks, but am not seeing a way for Fusion to pull in the Project Owner ID to assign. For example, on another automation I have set up I can pull the Project Owner ID without assigning the actual person.

Does anyone know if this is possible? I am stumped. Thanks!

Hi Kiersten,

If you get your tasks through a custom API call to Workfront, you could just add in field "project:ownerID" to the query. Then you'll get the ownerID of the project that the task lives under and you can assign it to wherever you like. Hope that helps!
