Setup
Using automation
Set up an automation to automatically add subtasks when a task is created.
Instead of pushing the in the table, You can set up an automation that automatically adds the relevant subtasks anytime a new task is created.
Turn on the automation
Open the automations panel by clicking the Settings icon (
) in the top right of the toolbar 👆 and then choose Automations 
. Then, click the automation rule called Add Subtasks to Task in the panel and select the toggle to turn it on.
The rules of the automation are:
WHEN the Type column changes,
THEN copy the relevant checklist from the template to the task who's Type was just modified.
Ready to give it a shot?
Make sure the automation is turned on, then select a Type on the following task:
Name
Type
List of Subtasks
My new task
No results from filter
⏱ now wait about 10 seconds...
The list of subtasks should automatically fill in to the tasks.
Cool, right? 👏
