Creating a Task from an Email
Emails forwarded to a project with a subject line but without the [Status] and #tag structure will automatically appear in the furthest left Status (Kanban view) or top Status (List view) of the project.
Format for Creating a Task from an Email:
Email Address (found in project settings):
team-url.projectID@mail.nifty.pmSubject: Task Name [Status List] #Tag
Body: Task Description
Example:
Email Address:
opka6123.jRUjXhhdb84@mail.nifty.pmSubject: Create onboarding design [To Do] #UX
Body: We need to create a design for when users sign up!
Note: If an open Task with the same name as the subject line of the forwarded email already exists within the project, the forwarded email will appear as a comment within that Task. To create a new Task from the forwarded email, modify the subject line accordingly.
