Make task handoffs easier to communicate
When ownership shifts, give the new owner the context they need without composing a handoff from scratch.
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
Create email draft
Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.
Why this helps
Reassigning a task can leave the new owner without context and the rest of the team unaware of the change.
- Prepare a concise handoff with the task context.
- Make assignment changes easier to communicate.
- Keep the email under your control as a draft.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ClickUp and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis to draft a handoff email when task assignees are added or removed, summarizing the task and what the new owner should know.
- 4Choose the Task Assignee Updated trigger, then choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real assignee change and review the Gmail draft.
Questions about this workflow
