+1 on the needing to be able to automatically add the submitter as a collaborator. This would be a huge improvement to our current ticket system we are using Asana forms for. Thanks!

I voted for it because it makes totally sense to add submitters as collaborators. In our case we could totally build up our internal helpdesk for subsidiary companies.

chiming in here that my org increasingly uses forms for intake of workflows across many teams. we always ask them to submit their email address as well as the email addresses of any people that might need to follow the task. it would be INCREDIBLE if they could instead choose user(s) from the dropdown of the asana org to say who needs to follow the task, or to automatically associate an email in our domain with a user, and add them. at a baseline we definitely are DYING for the āautomatically make me a follower of my submissionsā option

How is still not an option to select the user as auto-assigned to the ticket if the form was created by an Asana-logged-in user? We need this badly! +1 for this feature!

This is also something that we desperately need as well. Another +1 for this feature!

Agreed that this feature is needed. Really would help close the loop for people who submit forms to get tasks done.

Would love for this to be an option as well! It would be incredibly useful.

Hey Asana, I am in the process of setting up an Asana project to track IT support requests and this feature would be used to assign the submitter as a collaborator so they can track the task.

Added my vote here. I could have sworn that this was was already a featureā¦ that is if the email address is recognized as an email address associated with the account automatically add that account as a collaborator.
I came here assuming I was missing something, but it looks like I must have made that up that feature in my mind.

+1 This is much needed. Itās actually causing issues within our org because the requester is unable to get updates on the task unless someone happens to tag them in it. Some tasks are started and finished without stakeholders even knowing.

Any update on this @Marie ?
Hi @Ashley_Duchemin, Iām afraid we donāt have any updates at the moment. Have you tried adding a Rule to your project that adds Form submissions to a specific section and then add specific collaborators to the tasks? You can find more details in this article: Using Rules in Asana | Product Guide ā¢ Asana Product Guide
Adding my +1 for this request. Seems it should be a relatively easy deployment and a feature that would be used frequently. Virtually every Asana form for our organization would use this feature.

+1 this feature! I would be also like to see an additional feature to this one.
Our team handles primary marketing/operations support and weāre exploring Asana Forms for our submission requests. Weāre seeing one drawback: we canāt invite submitters to the form outside of the Asana workspace. 99% of our employees (4,000+) are not in Asana (and donāt plan to be), but it is an excellent tool for my team, hence why weād like to transfer our forms to Asana.
Ideally, we would like to add the submitter as a collaborator (who is not in the workspace) without having to invite them/create an Asana account. A feature where āguestsā can track their submitted requests. Alternatively, having an automated option to email the submitter updates would also work.
Our current form process sends automated email updates based on a āStatusā field. (To give you a scale, our team currently has 200+ active tickets) So if moving forward with Asana Forms means manually sending updates, it would almost not be worth it as it would add an extra layer of work for our employees - which is unfortunate because everything else about Forms is great

+1 on this feature! My team and I would benefit from this simple automation. Our organization uses a central intake form for all non event related needs, and we currently add the submitter manually to each task. Help me Obi-wan your my only hope!

Yes! This feature is much needed. Some way to add collaborators when a form is submitted. I have a text field on the form to list out the stakeholders, but it requires me to manually add each person. If Iām out, then these people donāt get added and donāt receive updates about the task.
