Linking Done Status between Card and Checklist

[Sven Göpfrich]

Hi there,

I created following automation to create Trello cards from Checklist Items.

After the card is created, it is moved to another Board into To Do. Once the Card is moved to Done I would like that the checklist item from the trigger card is checked.

I have tried following automation but it is not working:

I am guessing that I need to adjust the item variable. Could someone help me out?

Hi @Sven Göpfrich 

To fix this,

1. The step to use pattern is not needed in automation 1 (remember with smartlinks, what you see in the checklist is the cardname anyway).  
2. Structure it like so:
   For each checklist item in checklist "Sub-tasks", convert the item to a linked card in list "Sub-tasks" and rename the card to {triggercardname}: {checklistitemname}

This should do it I think.
