I need to create a scheduled automation rule that performs a specific action on cards a set number of weeks before their due date. However, my Trello Butler interface does not have the options to add the necessary conditions.

My Goal:

  • To have a reminder automatically posted on a card.

The Trigger:

  • This should happen 4 weeks before the card's due date. (I was able to do this action)

  • It should also happen 2 weeks before the card's due date.

The Condition:

  • The automation should not apply to cards that are labeled 'Woodward - Room Only'. (I can't figure out how to do this action)

The Action:

  • Tag the card owner. (I was able to do this action)

  • Post the comment: Review registration and notify Marketing / Sales of the current registration numbers for this event.(I was able to do this action)

My Butler interface does not have a clear way to add the condition 'that is not labeled' to the scheduled due date trigger, nor does it have a text-based command option. Can you please provide instructions for my specific workspace?"

I think instead of Scheduled, you should look at due date automations:
