Rule action to convert task to a custom task type

With the introduction of custom task types, it would be great if we could have a rule action to convert a task into a particular task type. Especially useful if tasks are added to the project via email or multihomed from other projects (since setting the default task type setting doesn’t apply for those cases) or at any stage of a particular workflow.

Hey @Richard_Sather,

Not at all to negate your suggestion or vote, but FYI I’m working literally right now on adding that to Flowsana:

Should be out early next week.

Looking forward to it, @Phil_Seeman !

Yesterday, Flowsana did my dishes and laundry; thanks, @Phil_Seeman!

Every time I develop something for us internally I say to myself: why aren’t we just using Flowsana for this?

FYI, you can now set a task to a custom task type in a Flowsana rule - see Flowsana: workflow automation for your Asana projects - #212 by Phil_Seeman
