I was looking through the email templates and was wondering if it would be possible to create one for the tasks dashboard? I know its possible to enable these for monitoring projects, but would like to know if there's any way to also enable them for updates to tasks, ie task assigned, task status changed, task deleted etc. Searching through the documentation I haven't seen anything relating to this,
Any help would be very much appreciated!

Hi β@apejko ,
I recently solved this for a customer so I can share with you one approach you could use to get task information via email.
First thing to say is that notifications for tasks canβt be configured in the web application in the same way that it can for Monitoring projects. The idea with tasks is that users work collaboratively on the taks in the kanban board.
However, there are graphQL endpoints for tasks so it is possible to read all the tasks information. In my recent solution the tasks data was then transformed in a desktop plan and an email constructed that was sent out to a group email address summarizing open tasks, changed tasks and closed tasks. With further development it might also be possible to parameterise the email and send custom messages to individuals. This extra development seems closer to your original request and may be something you want to develop.
As this is a desktop plan it would need to be deployed to the server and executed via a workflow and it can then also be schedule to run at set intervals. If you are interested in this solution I have attached the plan for you.
