Route task ownership with Discord roles
Make the current owner visible in the community that supports the work.
Trigger
Task Assignee Updated
Triggers when an assignee is added to or removed from a task. `changes[]` carries `AssigneeAddChange` and/or `AssigneeRemoveChange` entries. A single event may bundle multiple adds and/or removes — for example when a workflow re-routes a task between two users in one operation.
Action
Assign role to guild member
Assigns a role to a guild member, provided the bot has 'manage roles' permission in the guild and the role to be assigned is hierarchically lower than the bot's highest role.
Why this helps
A reassigned task may not change the signals teammates use to find its owner.
- Make ownership visible
- Speed up handoffs
- Reduce duplicate coordination
