Turn completed document templates into tasks
When the form is ready, the next action appears automatically.
Trigger
Document Placeholder Filled
Triggers when a Google Doc's plain text changes such that a configured placeholder token/pattern is no longer present (i.e., the document has been filled in). This trigger monitors a specific Google Doc and fires when a placeholder pattern that was previously present is no longer found in the document's plain text.
Action

DEPRECATED: Use BASECAMP_POST_BUCKETS_TODOLISTS_TODOS instead. Tool to create a new to-do in a Basecamp to-do list. Use when you need to add a task with optional description, assignees, and due date.
Why this helps
A completed brief or intake document does not reliably trigger follow-up.
