Kanban Form Triggers

Form triggers execute when a form attached to a kanban card is submitted. Use them to process form data and automate follow-up actions.

How Form Triggers Work

  1. User submits a form on a card
  2. Form triggers evaluate the submission
  3. Conditions check form field values
  4. Actions execute based on the data

Creating a Form Trigger

  1. Open card with attached form
  2. Click Form Settings → Triggers
  3. Add a new trigger
  4. Configure conditions based on form fields
  5. Define actions to execute

Form Field Conditions

Check values from submitted form fields:

  • Text fields: Contains, equals, is empty
  • Number fields: Greater than, less than, equals
  • Select fields: Equals specific option
  • Checkbox fields: Is checked, is not checked
  • Date fields: Before, after, equals

AI Form Evaluation

Use AI to analyze complex form submissions:

  1. Enable Use AI Evaluation
  2. Write an evaluation prompt
  3. AI reads all form fields
  4. Returns decision based on content
