Good afternoon,
I want to know how to create an automation to create a checklist once a task is changed of bucket.
I work with processes that require different checklists when they go through certain buckets, but the same checklists are always repeated, so it would be very useful to set up a checklist template when a task is shifted from bucket.
Thank you very much in advance for your help.
This answer is not entirely true.
While there is no trigger for when a Task is updated, there is definitely an action to add check items via "Update task details".
In the image attached, you can see a Flow for adding automatically Check items to a Task when it is created.
Power Automate Flow for adding check list items automatically to a task when it is created in Planner
Also, on a separate post, a user achieved what the OP is asking by recurrently checking the Task details for what Bucket it is in every 10 min, then triggering an action depending on the Bucket: https://lazyadmin.nl/office-365/trigger-flow-when-moving-a-task-in-planner-between-buckets/ -- convoluted, but works.
Thank you so much for your reply.
@edmar_nyc I don't think that can be done, there are only 3 triggers in Power Automate as shown below.
Also there is no action for creating checklist. So this can't be achieved using Power Automate.
