I have two projects with the same cards to manage access/permissions for different stages of a specific process. I need to create a rule that prevents a card from moving in one project if that card is in a specific column(s) in the second project. How should I go about building this functionality through asana?
@ASSprigle - Currently, you can’t have rules trigger or act based on information unique to another project. What you could do is have your column set a global custom field value (or just use the custom field for the column) and then have your rule check for the value of that field.
E.g., if Project A has a column for status (connected to a global single-select field), then your rule in Project B would trigger when the card is moved, check if the value of status is not {whatever}, and then execute actions.
