Dart makes it easy to set up useful rules-based automations. These will automatically complete some actions for you based on various triggers.

You can access your automations in settings under Workspace

The automations include:

Parents complete when all subtasks complete

When all the subtasks of a given task complete, the parent will automatically complete

Subtasks move with parent

When a parent task moves between dartboards, all of its subtasks in that dartboard will automatically move

Subtask statuses update with parent

When a parent status changes, all of its subtasks at or behind that status will automatically update

New subtasks replicate parent

When a subtask is first created, it will automatically inherit most of its parent's properties

Blocked task dates update with blocker

When a blocker's due date changes, all of the tasks that are blocked will automatically update

Simply click the toggle near any of these automations to enable them, or toggle them off to disable them.
