Flowsana Rule that Performs an Action on Subtasks Based on Parent Task Update

[Payton_Moore1]

Is there a way to set up Flowsana rules that accomplishes this:

When a custom field in the parent task is updated, please set the value of its subtasks to it. I know you can use {parent.CustomField} which is extremely helpful for the action side. I’m just curious if the trigger can be on the parent task, and the action that follows could be on its subtasks.

Thanks for your help!

I essentially want the rule to be similar to this:

Trigger: If [parent task]'s custom field is set to X
Action: Then set its [subtask]'s custom field to X.

Hi @Payton_Moore1,

No, not currently - as in Asana rules, the action in a Flowsana rule applies to the task that triggered the rule.
