Allow workflows to be triggered with events

Features & Improvements Request

Currently, we can only schedule workflows.
Triggering workflows after an event (for example, when a task is created in a specific project or a label is added to a task) will improve the user experience in Akiflow and user productivity, especially if the user can work on the workflow results right away.

    Hi@Nunzio, apologies for the delay.

    The first one is about reimbursements. When I complete a reimbursement task, a new task to check whether the reimbursement was paid is created with a due date in 5 work days.

    I could create a workaround with Aki for this one, where it checks the completed tasks in the reimbursement project, creates duplicates of them and adds them to a time slot in 5 work days, but sometimes Aki misses some.

    Another example, I have a task to buy items I need for housing maintenance with the tag maintenance. When I buy them and complete the task, a new task is created on the next weekend to do the maintenance.

    The last example I saw on Akiflow’s Slack was a user who wanted to create a project and tasks when the task related to a customer contract signing is completed. Not having to wait for a scheduled workflow or manually ask Aki to create the tasks every time saves time and lets us start working on the automatically created tasks.

    Best,

    Flavio
