Hi, Kelsea! I have not used the variables in this way, and I absolutely loved this! Immediately after watching your video, I updated some subtasks to include the name of the task they were connected to. Thanks for sharing this idea!

Much Success,

Lucky

Thanks for the tips & video Kelsea. :slight_smile:

Q: IF you add a variable for the Task description, I presume that the automation rule is only performing a one-time action, and any changes to the description of the (parent) Task where it was pulled from will NOT update the child Task, correct? Is there any way to setup a ‘dynamic’ relationship like that?

Thanks!
